Prompt: Christmas
Device: Acrostic
Poem 1 – Christmas
Christmas tree, standing free
Oh so bright twinkling like starlight
Sitting underneath with wrapping so neat
Your gift and my gift, waiting patiently
Poem 2 – the gift of kindness & love
kindness, in all it’s forms
never stands alone
open your heart
wide like the tide
the secret to life
happy healthy and long
your self-beliefs
so be kind inside
experience again your inner child
loving yourself first
friends and family come next

First time I’ve had a chance to look at your blogs and really like your poems. Your really good at it. 🙂
Hi, thank you – I am glad you liked them. Oh – I remember reading yours, I liked how you used your daughters names – so lovely.
btw – I love to see a creative accountant 🙂
Ha ha! A new take on creative accountant!
I enjoyed both, especially the first. Love the Christmas season! Very vivid 😊
glad you liked it christina, thank you 🙂
Both are lovely poems. I truly liked it.
I like your second poem very much. Perfect gift, acrostics, and simile.
hey, thank you very much, I’m really glad you liked it
These poems are beautiful. Puts one in the Christmas mood. Good job 🙂
hi jacquiline, thank you so much 🙂 I’m glad I could share a little of my cosy xmas feeling
You are welcome Alexander 🙂
Both poems wonderfully written~ I’m especially fond of the first piece, and cosy is definitely the word for it, the warmth festive and the joyous season ring through all too well~
Thank you so much! – I love the cosy feeling, I try to keep my mind cosy all the time, but at christmas the decorations and the thoughtfullness behind a gift, even if only one or two is when it can come to life. Oh, and a roaring fire and mince pie 🙂
I love christmas decors, they’re kinda magical~ And the way you described is so warm and fuzzy, the fireplace, the pie, maybe hot chocolate and some christmas songs~~
I wish I could experience this. It’s a totally different christmas here ~~
maybe you can pick a few friends and have a western style xmas party this year, I can help with ideas! 🙂
That sounds like a good idea! First things first~ need to get a xmas tree 😛
