A New Christmas Morning Poem by Rajashree Mohapatra

Oh! listen...
The song of breeze
In silence of night, a voice rise
With melody, deep and slow
singing in admiration
To greet with joy the symbol of self dedication.

Drops of dews as tears of love
Through darkness we look above
Music in glory of internal self
The angels rejoice sing to wake.

The sacred light in heaven's throne
Eternal his nature, fresh as petals of rose
Light descends as divine witness
Christ has come with power to bless.

All rejoice, celebrate his birth
He sacrificed to bring peace on earth
In the moments of stress and sorrow
In misery and mourning
Hope for a better tomorrow.

Let the tears of joy fill every twinkling eyes
Bliss of peace shower from the new sky
In New Christmas morning, a gift for all
Promise of a heaven as the glorious goal
