Moderna Natale

 The title means "Modern Christmas" in English language. Christmas is now approaching our towns. Let us fill the air with love, joy and happiness. Here is a little poem I wrote I would like to share to you.

It was the night of Christmas,

joyous like other years;

Of little Jesus in a manger

Happiness and joy it bears;

A bright star shone alone

on a cold dark starry night

Come three great merchants

Guided with Jesus’ light;

Children and old come whistling

down the busiest town;

With every house decorated

with balls and lights abound;

People were exchanging gifts,

sweet cards and each other's love;

Choirs filled the air with music

Like singing angels from above;

The fireplaces were hanged

with stockings in a row;

They were filled by an old man

driving through the snow;

Down the stairs children ran

Hoping for their presents to get;

Presents, and presents alone

that’s what children can't forget;

It was then that Santa Clause,

of flying reindeers atop

And not Jesus, the creator of All

existed in Children’s heart;

The modern christmas years

grew more than a toddle

And bit by bit, Jesus was replaced

by new Christmas models;

Let us always remember

who created this Holy day;

Down the halls show the joy,

the sweetness, the gay;

It was the night of Christmas,

Different from year to year;

Have a good night and a

Merry Christmas, my dear
