    100 Word Challenge - Christmas Spirit

     
    The one really good thing about NabloPoMo, was that I got to meet a lot of new people that I might have never tripped over of my own accord; one of those is Velvet Verbosity who has posted ‘The Velvet Verbosity 100 word challenge – Christmas Spirit’.
    I decided to do it on the actual ‘Spirit’ of the season, as it applies to me.
    I may be a little late getting started here, but what the heck.
     
     
     
    The Promise
     
    Uncommon star that had appeared so very long ago
    To herald in a brand new age to make on high, the very low
    A promise made within the dawn to those destined to fail
    That one day Grace would flow to all, within a babies wail.
     
     
    The Angels, although mighty, could not themselves convey the word
    To hearts that had turned cold and hard, against old prophesies they once heard
    But wise men looking to the skies for the sign that they did know
    Would guide them to the outstretched hand of God, set in a manger low.

    Beautiful poem, I am glad you participated in the challenge. I hope you will participate in mine now that velvet verbosity has passed the challenge torch onto me.

    Best, Lauren
