Blackness borders shrunken days;
The weakened, chastened sunshine rays
Appear resigned to lose the fight
Against the dark, encroaching night...

Quick! Strike a flame!  Let’s help the sun
Hold back the darkness!  Everyone-
Raise up a candle, light a spark!
We won’t surrender to the dark...

We’ll BE the light- just watch us glow;
Illuminating smiles show
Where Kindness, Love, and Laughter dance
The Dark and Cold don’t stand a chance!
The local newspaper put out a call to writers, poets, artists and photographers to submit works to be included in their annual "Christmas Song Book."

The entries will be judged, and 5 prizes will be awarded.

I'll let you know if I place.
