COMPASSION
Here comes Christmas!
And New Year’s Eve!
Blinking lights and candles
flashing up the gifts.
Sure I will be happy,
thanks God I’m not the one,
who’s crying in loneliness
looking for loved ones...
This night I’ll pray for them
and send my tears to Heaven,
asking for a place
where evil could never happen.

The night our almighty Lord was born
is a time when no one should be alone.
Let’s welcome the Lord of heaven and earth
in harmony with peace in the world,
where everyone is happy.
At the moment of uniting
of our thoughts and good hearts,
let’s devote our honest hands
to praise our Lord.
And I will give everyone a sign of my faith
which flows with deepest love!
By inviting him to my house, where God welcomes my guests with me!
Zbigniew Roth Poznań-Poland
extend a hand, so filled with love
a ray of hope in every heart's alcove..
.
for all we need is a heart, so kind
embracing all with gestures, love bind..
.
beyond every caste, color or creed
where every heart disowns the greed..
.
light of the God, glowing in our deeds
love and compassion is all, this world needs...
Amb. Dr. Sameer Goel-India
A zillion stars in sight, twinkling adorning the sky
My twinkle tweaked a bit, for that don’t make me cry.
Rudolph, with a blessed nose, so Santa kept him close
With love and care he groomed, it touched the sky and bloomed
Love is what I deserve, you care...so I can surf,
A cold and snowy path, will feel like a springy turf!!

Oh Jesus
and I imagine you clean,
crouched
in your humble cradle,
wrapped in a sweet warmth
warm and safe
in an uncontaminated harmony;
in innocence and purity,
pour into the air,
the scent of a new flower;
give joy to those present
and serenity and peace in hearts,
a light and a hope
in the sense of love
clearer and more sincere,
in wonder and enchantment
of this magical night
waiting for a new Christmas.

On Christmas Eve ..
on Christmas Eve
I pray for peace
We carry love
In the bathroom shelf
We are happy every year
Words write dreams
And we sing for the coming days
With joy speak
We launch the dream as a star
He hugs a galaxy of pens
We are poets of love
We draw the paths of generations in peace
The sky showered with wings of singing
Song of the Days
Every year

DECEMBER
December, Advent time and we heat.
Everything is splendid, glitter,
warmth of heart, families together.
They say it’s time for miracles!
For this Christmas, I want a miracle
long awaited happen!
Wrapped by the silk of my heart.
This Christmas I want snow
like I used to decorate old albums.
Sugar white heart sent
to the dungeon of the innocent people.
December, time of new birth,
new hopes and new loves.

The world is in pain and suffer today,
It drives man to compassion,
Is ourselves who must relief
Our own missery and self destrucction.
Beseeches, prayers, meditations,
Raise implorations to heaven
Or execute real changes in our own hearts
That will make the difference between pain and happiness.

While the world reflects on Christ Birth
They should contemplate also His death
While they sing merrily and share gifts
They should practice Christ's teaching
Christ Memorial feast He said remember
Taking care of orphans and widow in need
None should forget to make heaven rejoice
By making certain Christ KINGDOM reign

Sky shining with the Divine glow
Angels moving from Sky to Earth to and fro
Some thing special happening in the Cosmos
Jesus Christ is born to Marry
In Bethelhem under the Date tree in hay
People rejoiced God given glory and blessings galore
Till to day Jesus birthday is celebrated with merriment,
with hustle and bustle
Shopping spree eating dancing, singing jingle bells and fanfare
Christmas tree decorated, in jolly good surroundings children receive presents
All saying with one voice Merry Christmas

Here is my Dedication to the Lord:
Wishing all days were Christmas
to have blessings of JESUS
the poly-petalled Lotus
mankind’s focus
the Eternal Isthmus
between GOD and us.
©® Dr N K Sharma, INDIA
The joy of this divine heavenly bliss
X'mas, a season of love and peace
Is to share unfathomable moment
With sincere gratitude of sentiment.
Spread harmony by way of compassion
Through love and humane devotions
With kindness filled the whole world
With peace, no war in this universe.
Beyond class, race, breed and caste
A psalm of gracious harmony exists
For peace on earth, the tranquility
Inhabitants are to dwell in placidity.
The " white " of snow
Indicates the purity in human souls
To give the gift of compassion
With benevolence and dedication.

Christmas is here again, holding hands with the New Year.
The divine bell is ringing with joy and heavenly love is flying in the air.
This is the time to remove all accumulated darkness.
This is the time to stand by the side of the deprived, oppressed ones and to pray for God's kindness.
Under the new sun of the new day and the twinkling stars and the beautiful moon of the night, let us pray together so that all the weeping lonely faces can smile.
May Christmas and New Year bring a truly bright day that is not volatile..
..that is not hostile..
..that is not fragile..

Let’s put CHRIST back into Christmas
May we cease greeting Happy Holidays
But wish everybody Merry Christmas
For God gave His son to us as a gift
Mankind to redeem cleanse uplift
Propitiation for our sins
May Christ be born anew
Spiritual lives renew
In all our souls forevermore
Today more than ever before
May people see Christ in you and me,
To believe the Bethlehem story
Be transformed from darkness to light
And witness healing mercy God’s glory
Let’s spread love around for joys to abound

I'm silent tonight
Today is not like yesterday
Not even this special night
My heart groans and moans
A secret desire announces power
I quietly hide a tear in my eye
I don't have a heart tonight
What to wash this face
And now you and I are alone
Let the burning candle burn
The glare goes in my corner
Sad melancholy pain bothers me
My home is dark tonight
I'm keeping my wish tonight
Hungry unloved world tom
Christmas night remember a friend
Yes, I have a soul and a home
Nermina Adžović Mustagrudić-Montenegro
Welcome Christmas!!
Another new year is coming in the new year.
joy fills their hearts.
Gifts come, tables are set, meals are eaten, we pray for peace, and we throw away the calendar pages that we have turned upside down for a year and get another year.
a new hope, a new chance, a new life
The world is praying for peace for humanity ..
Families and children live the excitement of Christmas together
Neither money nor sorrow is considered at that moment.
Welcome to the new Christmas from the happiness of being together

FLASH OF LOVE
And unconditional love, the beauty of infinity.
And people are so miraculously powerful.
She is the eternal flash of light. Magic. His grace.
It is indispensable and indelible.
Love is the cure for every weakness
and for every pain, man.
Ruki Kočan-Montenegro
MY HEART SINGS
The glory of Him, my heart sings with the fondness
Of soul that the day tells the trueness of His birth and
The significance of it with the great happiness and
Peace it carries, illuminating heart and soul with the
Divine perception of heavenly joy that fills everyone
With the amplitude of great love and kindness which
Jesus showed to save me and you and drifting to the
Magnitude of the great sacrifice He did on the cross
To lift you and me from the depth of the agony of the
Heart and soul, to be washed off with blood he shed,
The world to live, not to be perished, with glory of Him.

Compassion for the afflicted
for Christmas celebration!
Do not be sad
on this holy day
when the feeling is revealed
all the Christmas secrets
I feel your soul
which is full of suffering
do not attack your heart
because I sympathize with the terrible pain
When he is the son of God
on earth passed Golgotha
and because of that we all feel pain
very often in this life
I will pray to the Lord God
that the anguish disappears from life
I know we can get away with it
if we sincerely repent to God
©® Velimir Siljanoski-Serbia
The night before the special
A gentle breeze is heard softly
He twists his notes and verse
I embrace desires I look at reality
Tonight I am part of them too
The gaze goes looking away
And there it is close I know well
Thoughts abduct the heart chooses them
I don't want to be alone tonight
I hug the sun in the dark night
I open the window and look at paradise
I imagine the reality that the dream wakes her up
And I quickly see the end of my fantasies
Festive night celebration is heard
I know my wish remains
Let me just hug you tonight
And I hear the congratulations of the honey mouth

My Lord
My Lord, let me know your secret language
I also say I am that I am but
Yet I bruise on my mirror soul
Yet I feel your agony
I feel how you have shown the glory of the new dawn
Crismas tree has started wearing new ornament
Many war affected children are crying here and there
Let them see the light
Let them say I am that I am.

Paper and ribbon, Love and glitter
Cover the gifts of love as curiosities flitter
Of what wonders and goodies could come inside
And what this Xmas eve has been supplied
By loving family, friend and stranger too
Saying with the gift, "I Love You"
Will never make a soul grow bitter
For no matter what the gift may or may not hold
The giving is as pure as gold coz Happiness doesn’t result from what we get, but from what we give.

☆ Letter to Santa Claus ☆
Santa Claus I behaved well this year and was a good boy
I know of your efforts and the concern you have for us with the beautiful and divine whole
I know that it is not easy to guide the sled around the world, imbued with a deep love, solidarity and spirit of victories
But I also know of your commitment and your rush to deliver the gift on time
I know of your solvable enterprise
to climb on the decorated roofs and leave the goodies in the stockings hanging
Santa Claus how can you keep everything organized and with gifts do not get confused and do not be mistaken
Look I already got a friction cart from you
But now my request is wholeheartedly ❣
And it's not just for kids, but also for young people and adults of all ages
Santa Claus I ask you to vaccine against covid 19, save humanity

Compassion
O how glad if we lean together ! As one common limb ,
If we confine and limb together our hearts ,
If we listen to sweet
Compassion Earth must
Give at this time
When The Holy Virgin
Gave birth to The Holy Son.

CHRISTMAS
Christmas brings us love
gives us hope,
fills us with faith.
Christmas is a redemption date
time of our history
of salvation.
It is joy and forgiveness.
Trail open from time
to Eternity.
Christmas is the truth
overflowing with love,
is to redeem, time of
renewal.
Light that is lost between
silhouettes in silence.
Christmas is a union of bonds of noble friendship and love
Compassion for
stripped children,
no home, no heat.
Let's put smiles on their sad faces,
faces marked by cruel abandon.

Inside your chest dwells Love;
Have it instilled in your mind!
That heaven shall not sleep for the unbeliever,
That the sun will not shine without tender color.
Inside your being is the glow...
Just breathe with pleasure!
To be goodness, soul that wants peace reproduced in your smile!
Where there is loveless, let there be affection!
Where there is sadness, let there be compassion!
Of faith, of love in the heart.
Where there is loneliness, hurting the feeling;
Let there be a choir of angels by the wind!
To blow hope is forgiveness!

My dream, desired by the poets, is where trees and white roses bloom in it
My dream is a homeland occupied by beloved where she built a glory in it
And I was the first immigrant from my galaxy…
My dream is like the wounds I carry on my shoulders…
So, Take the morns and break the chain of my song…!
My dreams are magical birds flirting the sleeping suns in the eyelids of my beloved
Crowned with grass scented by my blood….
My Dreams are horses racing the stars…
My Dreams are like a cloud shedding tears at the first birth of the character..
I open the album of my days that have departed faraway
When I am alone with the poem and about to lure it
Ecstasy turns into pain and the body remains floating like traveling sails…

A PRAYER
Christmas Eve, festive and brilliant /
when the angels sing sublimely on the altar /
blessed souls meet /
with the breath of God they come together.
The crowned prayer of blessing spreads in the sky /
to stop all hatred and rekindle hope /
that only love is sown and that goodness grows /
and peace reigns in the world forever.
©® Gordana Sarić-Montenegro
Does God think of pure
The most difficult year now!
How happy we are for Christmas and New year?
Though, a lot of us are suffering in this World!
Many pray to God for good weather and warm.
No turkey, but they pray for chicken on the table.
Let’s pray with compassion for their pain!
Instead of a cake, at least the donut worm!
The hardest thing for all, is poverty in the heart .
