MERRY CHRISTMAS ~ Acrostic Challenge

Make retailers lock their doors
Every single hour today
Rest weary minds .. tired feet
Returns will be taken back tomorrow
Yuletide rules today .. all day

Christ was born .. many can attest
Holiday .. majestic peace .. for some
Roads .. highways .. traveled less
Inca .. Blue Inca Nights dance in my head
Shoppers day off .. commercialism lives
Take a tree from the forest .. celebrate life
Make believe life is good for everyone
Arrange a soup line .. feed the hungry homeless
Sing a song together .. John Lennon's .. War Is Overzipper
*****************************************************************

This is astounding, Standing Bear! It is tragic that the world is hell-bound-deaf'''''''''just too deaf to hear the message of John Lennon, that if the world wanted WAR is Over, the world can have it. . I love your Christmas Acrostic. Challenge, Kudos.THANKS for sharing.

Poetry is not an expression of the party line. It's that time of night, lying in bed, thinking what you really think, making the private world public, that's what the poet does.

Allen Ginsberg (1926-1997) U.S. poet.
