Love the happy note in which the poem ends.
"This Christmas marks the day I came alive
And now in its enlightenment I'll stay."
Thanks for sharing. All the best for the contest.

-Very nice image and presentation, Katiemae.
-Effective imagery and rhyme.
-You do a good job showing how the
nature of the season influences your feelings.
-I like the line about catching
"the scent of wonder in the air."
-A very good conclusion about
"senses reviving" and how you plan
to keep these feelings and attitude.
-A very good entry; good luck in the contest.
-Wishing the best of the holiday season to you.

This is a beautiful poem that I really enjoyed reading. It has great flow and rhyme with meter that flows well off the tongue, you've done a great job! I love your reference to the senses through and feeling and listening to them it real brought the poem alive.
Well done and good luck with the contest.
Best Wishes

Very nicely done. The picture is soft and quiet and filled with wonder. Your words reached my ears I heard miracles in the air. This is a grand thing. I wish you love and joy. Karen

Comment from Marilyn Hamilton
An excellent entry for the Christmas poetry contest. I might be nisunderstanding but it sounds like you are saying that you found Jesus and became a Christian on Christmas day one year in the past. i apologize if I am getting that wrong. Either way, it is a lovely poem with a great story.

Thanks so very much Marilyn. No, the character is already a Christian. That particular Christmas he just re-awakens.
Take care and enjoy your holidays!

Oh wow!!! Katie, this is a beautiful poem so full of hope. I read your bio, so I see your situation. There are many here that suffer from debilitating illnesses. Your story of hope found in the baby's smile, in Christmas stands as a great inspiration to them. To me as well.
Best of luck in the contest,
Rhonda

And the birth of the child brought promise to every living soul, warming their souls and showing them the light that we are promised. Raise up and rejoice and find peace and contentment where once darkness dwelled. BEautiful!

Comment from karenina
Absolutely perfect meter and rhyme work with your fine lines to create as classic a Christmas Poem as I've read in a decade or more!
My senses were fully engaged and you gently urged me to step away from the commercial hustle and hustle of the season and feel the joy of Jesus' birth!
