A Poem about Christmas in The Bahamas

Giving is a must
Smiling is a plus
Christmas in the islands is simply just

The celebration of Jesus' birth
And the anticipation of heaven on earth
Bring people together to rejoice
Christmas in the islands is a joyous choice

The jubilated sounds of music is so clear
The spirit of the poor souls renewed
New year resolutions flare
Looking forward to another year

Bahamians are happy with glare
Visitors too join in the prayer
Faithful to God is so dear
Merry Christmas to you another year!
