TIS THE SEASON by Granny Annie
“Merry Christmas one and all!”
Was played upon the flute.
It was the special holiday time
Where one religion has it root.
First celebration of a birth
Next celebration a funeral.
Not told by a fortuneteller
Our One God made it doable.
Shepherds, Wisemen gathered round
The blessed baby gushing
While soldiers planned to follow
With mayhem and with crushing.
The expected babe announced
Even before the marriage.
They rode to Bethlehem on a donkey
And not a King's royal carriage.
There was not snow in this time.
They felt the desert's bake
To say welcome to our Savior
Who lived and died for our sake.
Great work again and lovely art. Happy Christmas.

ReplyDeleteI wouldn't have thought to use the words in a Christmas theme.
Lovely take on the prompt! Well-crafted. Kudos for fitting those words into the Christmas narrative. Out of the box clever!
