Christmas!-Spirit!
Prayer! (2023)
Love midnight-clear
spirit prayer-precious sacred-lexicon:
Frosty! Rudolph!
Santa! Lights! Tree! Manger! Star! Snow!
Comfort
memories held tender-heart close! Nostalgia I know!
And,
yonder---in a quiet desert town…a rustic stable manger miracle.
Gathered
there by invitation of an angel shining-star to join the father,
mother,
shepherd boy, critters various to worship-Praise
the Innocent!
“For
God so loved the world He sent His Son…” John 3:16 Amen!
Came
a soft Whisper-wind to visitors ears
a singing Cherubim & Seraphim!
“Holy!
Holy! Holy! Is the Lord of hosts…” Isaiah 6:3 Amen!
To
an Innocent tender-child Grandma’s
ceilings were heaven Awesome-tall
A
magic evergreen adorned with lights
and shine and ice to Christmas-call
Frosty laughed! Rudolph flew Santa Claus to his appointed Generous
rounds
Lights
bright! Ornaments shiny-pretty! Tree festive decorated! Passion bounds
Celebrate
His birth eons ago with Silent
night! Holy night! Praise caroling-songs
“Let
them praise His great and awesome
name. Holy is He.” (Psalm 99:3)
Clearly
delineated demarcation Worthy-Love or
evil-sin chosen-committed
A
simple-humble “Forgive me, Lord! I am a lowly sinner!” Freely-admitted
Confession!
Redemption! Salvation! Through His
Love-Grace Charity-acquitted
“Forgive
as the Lord forgives thee.” (Collasians 3:13)
To
a simple-humble mind album-lexicon to
fathom shadow-memories:
North-wind
howls a winter-sculpted ice-wave
glisten-crest preserved
Comfort-soft
white chill-fluff daguerreotype in stark black-and-white
Friend
Frosty snowman happy-brave in a sun
scape frozen golden-glow
Scads
of ribbon! Mountains of colored pretty-paper! Present Love-gifts!
Family-gathered
in “Good wishes!” Love1delight turkey trimmings feast
Sled-rides!
Pond ice skating! Blazing bonfire marshmallow-hot dog roast
Midnight-star!
Angel-call! Rustic stable-manger scene! Innocence-Glory!
“Behold,
the lamb of God Who takes away the
sins of the world!” (John
1:29)
Merry Christmas!
Spirit-prayer! Love, Candy & Carl
