A Christmas Love Poem

Reflecting on salvation's occasion…

Man’s redeemed because of the holy birth

God’s promise of the lasting covenant…

His only son for us imperfect souls

Christmas of the greatest gift forever…

Liberation from death celebrated

Son of a virgin and the king of kings…

Royalty of royalties, and the faithful shining star

Emmanuel of harmony and love…

Songs of praise welcome the bequest of life

Singing to God - master of compassion…

The season illuminates thankfully

Sharing in joyful appreciation…

Peoples believing gather in accord

Christ for the longing hearts - tears of the living light shine…

Christmas of jubilance dominates fine

Reflections of sinners’ fate rescued…

Jesus the true promise - Jesus the savior

Christmas tribute of sacrifice adored…

Love of heaven evermore replenished

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!
