Christmas Poem by Frank O'Malley
Christbrand
By Frank O’Malley
Let the Christbrand burst,
Let the Christbrand blazon.
Dartle whitely under the hearth-fire,
Unwind the wind, turn the thunderer,
And never , never thinning,
Forfend fear.
Flare up smartly, fix, flex, bless, inspire,
Instar the time, sear the sorcerer,
And never, never sparing,
Save all year.
Let the Christbrand burst,
Let the Christbrand blazon.
(Frank O’Malley was a beloved English Professor at the University of Notre Dame)
