...*...Christ Is Born Pure...*...

Christ was born under a winter star
Heaven's angels flew so far
Relentless joy accompanied with love
Instantaneous systems danced above
Sacred wings carried our Lord
To a clouded throne where enthralment soared

In brief moments hell froze through
Silent worship held so true

Bethlehem witnessed great celebration
Overjoyed with Satan's cremation
Rivalry and war now stood still
No more demonic screams ran shrill

Peaceful wise men visited soon after
Undying hope accompanied by laughter
Rage was forgotten along with fear
Eternity under our Savior is near

Author notes

Words used Bethlehem, Star, Winter, Sacred, Angels.
I did an acroustic which spelled out "Christ is born pure."
It wasnt really christmas, but instead on our lord's birth.
It was rhyming.

    This is an interesting acrostic - I like that you have gone back to the origins of Christmas instead of focusing on the materialistic very nice message and I really enjoyed the way you have created such an intricate acrostic

    Merry Christmas!

    This is a beautiful poem.
    Unfortunately there are quite a few typos.

    Here I will write down how it should look like.
    Compare this one with yours and make the changes please.


    Christ was born under "a" winter star
    Heaven's angels flew so far
    Relentless joy accompanied with love
    Instantaneous systems danced above
    Sacred wings carried our "Lord"
    To a clouded throne where "enthralment" soared

    In brief moments hell froze through
    Silent worship held so true

    Bethlehem witnessed great "celebration"
    Overjoyed with Satan's cremation
    Rivalry and war "now stood still"
    No more demonic screams ran shrill

    Peaceful wise men visited soon after
    Undying hope "accompanied" by laughter
    Rage was forgotten along with fear
    Eternity under our "Savior" was (soon) near.

    Anna.
