Christmas, Must You Forget It? Poem by Cynthia Buhain-baello

Christmas, Must You Forget It?



They want you to bow
Christmas you must forget
Because we all know
Christ in the word frets
Gives them sheer discomfort
That they cannot stand
The Truth He brings forth
In your father's dear land.
So you are now the slaves
Dictated by their rules
As their rantings and raves
Make your leaders fools
They're so afraid to offend
This religion's believers
But Darkness they send
To your country thereafter
Choose now Who you will serve
And stand on your true ground
They cannot get what you deserve
Freedom reigns, it abounds!

@Luis Estable - this is a poem /comment on the news item about Christmas being taken out of the American culture for the political correctness of being more universal in its faith beliefs. The errant leaders try to please everybody and in order not to offend some religions (muslim) , they will remove Christmas. It is in the world news- if you read that. Diction pertains to tone of voice in speech, when pronouncing words. Diction does not relate to poetry like rhyme, rhythm, metaphor, substance, or impact. When you review, try to see the aesthetic element and the meaning of the poem, not merely the superficial literal meanings.
