This beautiful and moving poem brought a freshness and spiritual blessing to the well-known story of the shepherds in the fields. It must have been a transformative experience for each of them. Thoughtfully, imaginatively, and creatively written. Beautifully done. Best wishes for your entry!

It's easy to believe this might have been the way they told it. You weave the Christmas story into your narrative seamlessly. A splendid entry to the contest.

Excellent
Not yet exceptional. When the exceptional rating is reached this is highlighted

This is a very nice holiday poem. Well versed and well written. If you can change the font which will be easier for me to read.

Will there be more poems

    Thank you so much! Is the font difficult for you to read? Which device are you using - a laptop or iPad?

    I was using my iPhone which I normally use
reply by the author on 10-Dec-2023
    Ah. The formatting on that must look very different from the laptop that I use or the iPad that some other writers use.
