    Awe thank you dear friend! I appreciate it so much. How are you doing and any new news? I am finally going to read your interview with Roy. I truly enjoyed your story about your dad and understand that it helps to write about those things.

A nice little poem that celebrates the reason for the season, our salvation through the coming of Jesus Christ. It seems like this is all but forgotten in the media and public sphere nowadays and it is nice to see it put out there by somebody. estory

Lovely poem and a wonderful video. Celine Dion sure can sing her praises for our Godly gift, Jesus. I love your poem. It looks like you did well in the contest.

    Thank you Rosemary and yes, I did get third and always happy to place.
    I love Celine Dion too and there was a time, especially at one of her concerts where she hit that high note, that sent Christmas chills down my spine.
    Thanks for your lovely comments, my sweet friend. I wish you and yours the most Blessed Christmas ever!!

This an excellent poem for the season and well written for this contest, good luck. I don't know much about nonet poems, okay, maybe nothing. They look hard to write to me, and you did a good job. The presentation and photography are good. The song is excellent. Terry.

Just a beautiful Nonet. Perfect count and presentation, elegant font, peaceful image!
While Nonet need not be rhymed, look how masterfully you've written in monorhme!

Too bad you couldn't find a talented singer to accompany your work...


Yes! I AM KIDDING!

My crystal ball says this will win easily!

My goodness, she has a voice!

    Thanks Karenina for the loveliest review. Wow, what lovely comments for this poem. You have no idea how much that means to me. And I have heard her do this song in person, where she will send Christmas chills down your spine when she does that one big note. So thank you my very dear friend for such a lovely review and the kindest words. They sure are appreciated and so is the big smile you gave to go with it.

    Oh well, so much for my crystal ball, huh? But third place is a very nice finish and this is super elegant! Your poems are always winners in my book!
reply by the author on 19-Dec-2022
    Did your crystal ball tell you it was me? Or did you know that? Or do I have more to know me by than that I talk too much? Such as I can always tell when you have been in the area, because I can see the Angel glitter sprinkled all over for joy.

    I "sensed" it was you although I did not know for sure. Let's face it, Debi, even when you follow every rule you can't hide your light under a bushel! Thank God! I voted for this one without "knowing" it was you. But hey you know that Thelma and Louise connection right? Hah-hah!

This is a very beautiful and very well written Nonet poem you have penned. You used very good and very true words with very beautiful imagery from the art work you chose. I love Celine Dion and Old Holy Night! May God bless you and Merry Christmas! Teri

    Oh Teri, thank you so much for this lovely review and words for my poem. Also for those six shining Christmas gifts to go with it. You are Precious!
    I appreciate them all more than you could possibly know, my very dear friend. Also, love the gift of a smile you included with them for me. I will use it all week long.

What a lovely example of nonet poetry and is an added special touch that it looks like the reflection of a Christmas tree. Jesus is the reason. Good luck with the contest. Merry Christmas.
