Christmas Lights

For a contest =).

The Christmas lights shine so bright,

Blue and orange,

Yellow and white,

They make the tree come alight.

 

As we sit and wait,

For that December 25th,

We watch the lights that blaze,

On the trees and roof tops.

 

Christmas lights,

What would Christmas be like,

Without the shining lights?

I like this- I was just reading a Christmas story to my younger sister the other day and I figured I'd take a look at this to get into the mood :) I think it's cute, can a guy say that?? Oh well :) It reminds me of one of those children's books that everyone enjoys- maybe kinda Dr. Seuss, which I love. I hope it doesn't insult you that I felt that way, because it was really good! I just didn't know if you were going for an older audience or anything. The rhyme scheme makes it more appealing to a younger audience, but that isn't a bad thing at all. I enjoyed it :) Keep writing!

The rhyme pattern in this poem is good, because it doesn't sound like it was a struggle to put together and it doesn't sound cheesy either. It's a sweet, simple poem that is refreshing.
