You have put this spiritual poem together beautifully. I really especially love how you have expressed the final part of this, 'I will remember that God has a secret stairway into every heart. Just gorgeous, well done I enjoyed. Good luck with the contest.
Best Wishes

Not to be forgotten or overlooked. The birth was necessary for the death that accomplished the mission of freeing mankind from the curse that followed Adam's sin. Had he not been born and able to complete his mission, all creation would be lost and without hope.

I believe that hope is eternal. And that hope is that God never gives up on anyone. Even if it takes eternity to bring them home. Thanks for your read and write. -Bill
Comment from Dawn Munro
Wow, my friend, this is spectacular in every respect. You've made free verse a new art, in my honest opinion, presenting it as you have... Of course, the poem itself is fabulous! My fave? This--
"there are many ways to the manger"

I love your presentation in this poem. It really is an attention grabber. And it tells the real story with accuracy. Also love your stairway. It too is an eye-grabber.

I did enjoy the way that you structured your poem, very inventive. This poem spoke to me of the many ways that a person can travel and find God, very well constructed.

The Lord calls us individually in unique ways. The way you patterned your poem, forming a stairway created a visual image of the poem. Well done, dear William for the creativity displayed in this poem of Christmas. Good luck in the contest.
