Christmas-pleasures... & Day 347 CJSM-book IV

 
Christmas Pleasures…
Enjoy! Each day’s life-treasures
 
 
Dare experience each adventure-event God’s goodness daily offered
Dawn-dew, sunshine-cheer, thunderstorm, snowdrift-sculpted coiffured
 
“Magic” dances, verifying existence in one first flutter-flake
Beautiful as an emerald sea’s white-foam receding wake
 
Blanket-comfort pristine cover on created nearly-perfect world
Fantasy delight fires imagination of every heart-young boy and girl
 
Stark surreal subtle silver shadows blend in dark-light mirage play
Sky peach-blush-hue hints portending enchanted fresh-fluff day
 
Chase dodging frozen flakes upon warm tongue to tingle-cold
Crackle-fire, chocolate warm, respite offer---dare challenge bold
 
Night-time, sweet love tight-hold before toasty golden solace-flame
Blizzard howls lamented-cold; refuses any futile effort to wild-tame
 
New Year calendar-itinerary evolves natural into sweetheart’s time
Mid-winter anachronistic-thaw teases spring promise-flavored mime
 
Ice skates clatter, sleds rocket smooth, Christmas-delivered treasures, these
Valentine hearts, Ides of March, St. Patrick’s leprechaun pleasures, please
 
Dawn seeks dusk extends shadows-long in awesome greening sight
Yellow-bright dresses with bunny-hops celebrate Easter-ham delight
 
Icy-freeze reluctant melts away; sun rises warm; winter dissolved
Spring-time “reigns”! April “showers”! Usher May “flowers”-evolved
 
Yellow morels pop, birds nest, Red-ear sunfish initiate annual lake-spawn
I know a verdant grove; that hidden cove; glimpse a doe, fresh-spotted fawn
 
Silent salute! Reverent memory! Heart-tug band! Old Glory! Proud unfurled!
Honor all courageous sacrificed-served; many times such redeemed our world
 
Diamond prepare, rake mound high, chalk line straight; too late for momentum-stall
Red-seamed white-horsehide sails in, bat-club cracks at umpire’s yell of-“Play ball!”
 
Kids frolic-swim in creek’s cool hole; Robbins, Cardinals, Turtle Doves hatched
Wrens nest in porch-hanging ferns; sore-muscled alfalfa workers rest, detached
 
Ancient Silver Maple dappled-shade satiates like a cold-drink lemonade
Join child-delighted marching band, flower-floats, Homecoming parade
 
Fiery-tailed rockets explode ebony-night sky: Red! White! Blue! Designed it
One far reach to Christmas delights; yet, gold, indeed, is where thee may find it
 
Sophomore pretty-Junior athlete duet-croon National Anthem solemn tribute
Citizen! Attention-stand proud, nation-courage cannot one ever honest-refute
 
Any reason for a nation-worthy to party, celebrate collective focused fair Labor
U.S.A. gonfalon proudly waves: Faith! Family! Freedom! God’s honored favor!
 
Spy puff-cotton clouds traverse blue sky; westward brews lightning thunderstorm
Deluge drops pelt choppy-surfaced lake; Flash! Crash! Echo! Wild summer norm
 
First day of school arrives, too soon, intent to sure quell pure free fun
September clouds fluffy-white; breathe deep of pleasure again begun
 
Red and gold, yellow-brown chase leapfrog wind-tag in Mother’s game
Promised coming seasons-imaged every blessed year reflecting the same
 
Clean and oil fall-tradition weapons; anticipate white-tail venison play
Turkey, cranberries, gravy-’taters, pumpkin-pie feast-Thanksgiving Day!
 
Anticipate soon-now unique geometric frozen-flake surprise arrival-gift
Christmas Joy for each all year, if adventure-event thee dare survival-sift
 
Spatter in: Happy Birthday! Anniversary! An anytime tasty bar-b-que!
Celebrate His life-gift with willing army or just a special-numbered few
 
Perhaps? The “Independent-Individual” survived around an untruth “envelope”
Simple is! As Simple does! Treasure-Pleasure! Happiness lived! Full-scope!
 
“What others think of me, concerns not I”---trumps vacant, fleeting “celebrity”
Crystal-blue contact, a firm handshake, true-bond respects purchased “integrity”
 
Those “Sacred”-secrets lifelong sought? Right before thy self-obfuscated sight
Courageous challenge! Deny any “boundary”! Live: Wish I may! Wish I might!
 
Then? Onward! Delight trek right through to Christmas Eve special celebration
Alas! Serendipity! Each day be Christmas! Comes His hallowed Revelation!
 
Amen!
 
Merry Christmas!

 
Plus:
 
 
Day 347
 
 
Lauren’s beautiful violin music &
Nanny squeaking on her violin
 
 
That our progeny is talented is obvious; get it from Candy; I might “play” a radio!?
Miss Lauren took up the violin, a most difficult challenge, mastered it…quickly!
Anna plays the piano, as does Miss Lexli-Lu; all three also play other instruments.
Nanny (our Lovely Lady Candice Leah) plays the piano and also took up the violin. Yea!
Z Tyler is exceptional at sports excelling at golf, hockey and baseball. What a star!?
Our girls are perfect Ladies and Mothers; kind, considerate, compassionate, generous.
Hmm!?---All that talent causes simple-humble me to wonder…how I ever got into this clan!?
You know? I reckon others make that same interrogatory. Hmm!? Again!
 
Let the symphony continue!
 
Ah! Cookie Jar Sweet “I am the ‘always’ audience” Memories!
