New Original Winter, Holiday, and Christmas Poetry

This page features New Original Winter, Holiday, and Christmas poetry.

If you enjoy poems and prose, including Haiku, rhyming and non-rhyming poetry... I hope you will enjoy and be inspired by the writing on this page.

Christmas and the Holiday Season is such a wonderful and magical time of year. We dream of lovely white snow, angels, Christmas sparkle, delicious meals with family and friends, and cheerful and sad holiday music.

The holiday are also a time for remembering loved ones no longer with us, those we love who may be far away, and other memories of the past.

This time of year is also wonderful for making new traditions and memories for the years to come.

The poems on this page reflect all those feelings that come with the holiday season. I hope you enjoy reading them.

Renewal: A Christmas Poem

Renewal: A Christmas Poem

Each snowflake falls, clean and fresh

upon our upturned faces.

It strikes me how much we've been blessed

with life's unfailing graces.

There have been times I've felt so lost

in the blizzard that surrounds me,

But I stand here in the snow and frost

And newly, love astounds me.

Christmas fills my soul with light,

My heart with love that's beaming

The sparkle in your eyes is bright -

Don't wake me if I'm dreaming.

Christmas Poems: Haiku Poetry Perfect for Homemade Cards

Three Lovely Holiday Poems for Reading, Sharing, and Scrapbooking

Christmas Poems: Haiku Poetry Perfect for Homemade Cards

1.

Lovely light white snow

Flakes float quietly downward

Coating eyelashes

2.

Noble fir stands tall

Strong in the forest shadows

Wildlife's Christmas tree

3.

A child smiles with joy

Watching snowflakes falling down

Dreams his snowman dreams

Christmas Finds You Far Away

photo www.sxc.hu/Crystal Leigh Shearin

Christmas finds you far away

Farther than my dreams can go

I search my mind and musty boxes

For memories of you

more clear...

Fading now - it frightens me

I want to close my eyes and be

in your arms

your soft embrace,

feel love and wisdom

in your face.

You would know just what to say

to sweep old cobwebs from my way

That I might feel the look of you...

not far away, not far away.

From one poetry lover to another, this is a great lens. I need to create a lens like this, because my current poetry lens does not have a holiday theme. Great lens again.
