Poetry Corner for Dec. 27

By Staff | Dec 26, 2020

By Jeni Alden St. Laurent

Nashua

season’s wind

heard in the carols

from the outside in

a cheer calling

long this year

of crisis has been

it steeps the season

with crystalline reason

to chime in towers

and sparkle on windows

and gift with organic thought

whispers of kings past

pressed palms of need

giving respite

giving hope

elegant white doves

fluttering down

snow covered streets

falling arms wide

to embrace resurgent

Christmas Light

By Susanna Hargreaves

Nashua

There is a place that is Christmas

Where the memories last

where the music plays

and we can forgive the past

There are no worries

And there is no fear

Only golden light

and those we love so dear

Have you said the words

Have you said them clear?

Merry Christmas, Darling

Merry Christmas, Dear

Oh, I love you darling

You make me feel alive

Miracles can happen

All is right

You are such a beautiful sight

Surrounded by golden light

So open your present

There is a new year

Hope is alive

We can spread some cheer

Merry Christmas, Darling

You make me feel alive

All is well

All is right

Merry Christmas, Darling

Merry Christmas, Dear

Oh, I love you darling

You make me feel alive

Miracles can happen

All is right

You are such a beautiful sight

Surrounded by golden light
