The Truth About Christmas

C hrist was born on this day near the beautiful green holly hanging above.

H ow sweet the warm taste of the Light Golden Eggnog

R emember Frosty on these cold winter days

I nstitutional ways to teach young ones of the celebration

S ome look for Rudolph, some listen for bells of His sleigh

T insel wrapped around the christmas tree.. the sudden warmth that the lights give off

M iracualous wonders of what will arrive inderneath the tree

A ccusations of what that red box is, or the one wrapped in holly wrapping paper

S ome watch for happyness and joy

A contest entry

    There are a few spelling mistakes in this which have already been pointed out, I think that if you edited those this would flow better because the reader doesn't have to stop and fix them as they read apart from that this is a lovely poem, clearly showing the joy and anticipation of Christmas

    Merry Christmas!

    You have written an Acrostic here - starting with the letters that form the word "Christmas". Each line tells us something about Christmas. Very good.
    Unfortunately you have made a few typos in it, which you can easily be corrected though.
    In line 5: His should be "his".
    In line 7: Miracualous should be "Miraculous" and
    inderneath should be "underneath".
    In line 9: happyness should be "happiness".
    Have another look please.
    Anna.
