A poem of faith. It tells us the reason for Christmas. Each line is an expression of faith. It talks about the Christ child and how Christmas is dedicated to him.

This poem makes me feel as though I want to wake up and join the choir to sing out loud and let everyone know that Baby Jesus is Here! Awesome, jubilant writing. Fabulous Acrostic!! Best writing I've seen. PiT 12/26/08

Comment from artsygal
I love your use of a hymn-like rhythm and rhyme as combined here with the acrostic! Brooke, there are Christian publications everywhere that would love to publish this, I am sure. It's beautifully done, flows like music and has lovely messages of hope woven into each and every line. Favorite lines: Dedicate yourselves to caring,
Search your hearts to displace need.
Such good advice--think of those less fortunate and do what you can to help others. I believe that, too.
Warm wishes for a great day :-)
Hugs

This definitely captures the mood of the season. Don't worry about the choice of the title, it certainly can be justified as an apt metaphor in the very least.
I hope this helps and good luck.
