"Happy Christmas,2015 To All! " Poem by Dr John Celes

For now, I feel I'm all alone in life;
For now, I feel I'm insecure on earth;
For now, I feel I'm losing to my strife;
For now, I feel I'm living not with mirth.

For now, I feel I'm heading for worse times;
For now, I feel I'm disgusted with life;
For now, I feel I'm facing unfair climes;
For now, I feel I'm hurt by problems rife.

For now, I feel I'm not enough divine;
For now, I feel I'm still in sin quite long;
For now, I feel I'm heartily not fine;
For now, I feel I'm singing sad a song.

For now, I feel I'm heading for ruin;
For now, I feel I'm not forgiven by God;
For now, I feel I'm walloping in sin;
For now, I feel I'm burdened by my load.

But Christmas is not far away this year;
The baby boy of Bethlehem brings bliss;
With him comes peace to men of goodwill dear;
This grand event, let world not ever miss.

And …
My heart will burst with joy when Christ is born;
Life's drudgery and weariness will wane;
The Virgin Mary's Fiat blessed this morn;
God's Son will bear my cross and my life's bane.

"Happy Christmas,2015 to all! "
