An inspiring  artwork that caught my attention was this story or poem that was written in a manner, that an image of a gun could be seen. It was an interesting art work and I too want to create a poem similar to it.  This artwork inspired me to arrange a song and this is what I came up with :

                     Silent
                night, Holy
               night All is
             calm, all is
                 bright
                Round yon
             Virgin Mother
              and Child Holy
            Infant so tender
            and mild Sleep in 
             Heavenly peace
           Sleep in Heavenly
            peace Silent night,
         Holy night Shepherds
             quake at the sight
          Glories stream from
         Heaven afar heavenly
          hosts sing Hallelujah
          Christ, the Savior is 
        born Christ, the Savior
       is born Silent night, Holy
        night Son of God, love’s
      pure  light Radiant beams
       from thy Holy face With  
       the dawn of redeeming 
      grace Jesus, Lord, at thy
    birth Jesus, Lord, at thy birth

 

The connection between this song, silent night and the illustration I attempted to protray is a candle. The images seem to illustrate a symbol that is significant to  the words. The candle represents light and hope that Jesus brings to us with his birth into this sinful world. He is our candle in darkness and our bright light that guides us as christains.  Jesus Christ came to the earth to save us from our sins. The stars was a the light that guided the people to the lord Jesus, with his mother Mary. The repetition of light is seen throughout the bible. There are psalms that talk about the great light and the heaven filled with bright angels who are also assoicated with white light.
