Christmas Acrostic

entry picture
Christmas is something beauitful for me and
Has a subtle magic in it which
Rains down on you softly
Instead of screaming or
Swearing at you
That makes even the most minor thing
Mean everything
And creates hope so that it
Springs out of misery.

Christmas

I really love that poem Nigel - especially the beginning and end - 'Misery is a cross' and 'Christmas is an early spring towards happiness' - beautiful :) You need a little punctuation in the middle to aid reading but perhaps you are not a fan of punctuation.

You should get yourself a profile and start blogging.

Lovely Andy. I'm a lover of Christmas too. Yes, I know that we should all be like this all year - but it just isn't possible to sustain this level of good will, is it - or the energy that is needed to make it all happen.

I love the picture you have chosen to go with it too. Have a good one. xx
