Your picture choice and presentation are striking. I admired your rhyming couplets in these quatrains. I liked your appealing to our sense of hearing with the onomatopoeia and your use of color with "cherry cheeks." Happy holidays- Joan

I'm glad my poem is at your mall, at least in essence. What an encouraging review. Yes, this art is amazing, though not mine.
Comment from poetstar
For starters, I love the unique color and artistry of the bells in that fabulous picture. Then it just gets better as your fine ringing words echo the bells ting a ling chimes. The elation of Christmas is clearly expressed throughout the cheerful, uplifting poem. Carolers ringing of Christ's birth, all hope brand new, what a perfect way to end this poem, but hopefully enter new thoughts of Christ into hearts and minds of readers. Merry Merry Christmas to you. Thanks for letting your poetry express the true love of Jesus. Sincerely your friend Poet Star

Thank you, Brooke for this excellent review to help this writer:) After I wrote this poem I wondered about syllable count--wasn't sure if it was supposed to be certain syllables. But it must be ok. Thank you. If I haven't said it, Merry Christmas and LOL! I knew you'd hear those bells--you're awfully sharp:)
