* * * The world is lit up by a heavenly light a star and a child radiate divine love dissolving the darkness of the holy night diffusing a message of Hope from Above. In amazement and joy we go back in time to mingle with all the shepherds and the kings to listen to the magical sacred chime that showers humankind with untold blessings. Immense tenderness floods our one heart and soul we contemplate Jesus in adoration pondering the significance of His role in awe of the upcoming transformation. Here we stand and identify with His heart our spirit expands in His cosmic embrace of our lives Jesus will forever be part creating a deep bond beyond time and space. We have come to renew our faith and our hope for this world cries out for peace and harmony always with Jesus we shall know how to cope and find a way to stop our Earth’s agony. For the gift of You, sweet Beloved, we give grace joining hands with all the people of the world singing together our song of joy and praise happy to know that our voices will be heard. * * * Join the song, my friends. Merry Christmas! |

Your message is deep as the passages and the passages are as wondrous as the words. To be exalted in such a glorious manner this Christmas season is a wonderful thing to see. ~*~ If they give you lined paper, write sideways. ~*~ |

I read to/with my youngest child, nightly. It is something I've done with all of my children, starting 18 years ago...I shared this poem with him. Thank you for this... |

Margherita, whilst I find it very easy to come close to Jesus of today, so often the Christmas story seems to me like a distant tale of long ago. Your poem, took me right back there in a very real and sacred way. This must be the Christmas poem you have been wanting to write. Thank you so very much for this. Owl |

Thank you, dear EmmaRose, for listening to the message together with me and for diffusing it with your loving kindness. Enjoyed your comment. Dear Jerry, I am grateful for your loving comment. In this world full of turmoil it's sometimes difficult to remain in silence to listen to the divine message of Love. To celebrate Christmas is to celebrate Love. Dear Nicole, it pleases my heart that you choose to read my words to your child. Thank you so much. It is a wonderful habit to read to/with our children and grandchildren. May we always find the time! They do enjoy it so much. It happened to me to observe my grandchildren fighting the sandman just to listen a little longer and enjoy the warmth of being together. Thank you so much, dear Diana, for your loving comment. Yes, this is the poem I wanted to write (though of course, like always, I am not fully satisfied with the outcome!). I gave birth to it in the silent hours of the night and when my husband got up at 3am and found me still awake he said I was "crazy" ... well I love the craziness of creativity when it visits us ... at whatever time! I love the idea of moving back in time to be there in that incredibly precious moment when Jesus arrived among us to spread His message of Love. Dear Yann, thank you so much for your wonderful comment. I meditated and prayed for inspiration and if I got the message through, then I am very grateful. We are so badly in need to reach out with Love and Trust in the divine guidance to rediscover our common divine Source and see it in all of our brothers and sisters, with the intent to make this world a happier place to live in. Love and joy on this 4th Sunday of Advent! Margherita |

The poem is very beautiful, dear Margherita. The world needs to read this all year 'round, instead of just at Christmas time.The spirit message of Jesus need be in our minds at all times, brought to the surface, up from its ever presense in our hearts. You have brought that presense to my surface with this poem, and for a moment, ( in a way) have stayed my subjected confusion on the Christo centric issue. because "Poetry is a momentary stay against confusion" Auden Thank you |

Thank you, dear JL, for your loving kindness and for perceiving mine (when it is expressed in blessed moments ). I enjoyed your comment. Thank you, dear Echo Bleu, for you loving reply. It is a joy to hear that you feel inspired to write. Yes, never stop! Dear James, yes, thank you, I do use it to send my Christmas wishes to those of my friends who speak English. I need to render my thoughts now also in German, Italian and French. But will I be on time? Maybe next year! What a loving, as well as interesting comment, dear Ford! Thank you, for always paying deeper attention when you read here. To have Christ consciousness at all times is a wonderful gift indeed and it feels good to express it in special moments, such as Christmas. Love and joy filled anticipation.
