Candy’s Christmas-eve! (2022)

 

Christmas-eve! (From the eyes of a 12 year-old girl):

 

Silent night! Holy night!

All is calm! All is bright!

 

Fashion Christmas outfit-styles color bright-delight

“Merry Christmas!” Hugs and kisses greetings-polite

 

Round yon virgin Mother and Child

Holy Infant so tender and mild

 

Whisper-wind reverent-silence emotion sacred-holy church-venue

Peace-on-earth! Innocent manger-scene! Spiritual passion-grew

 

Sleep in heavenly Peace!

Sleep in heavenly Peace!

 

Sweetness-soft choir sings sacred Christmas-hymns

Lighted-tree! Poinsettias! Reenact O! holy Bethlehem

 

Silent night! Holy night!

Shepherds quake at the sight

 

Luke 2 And it came to pass in those days that a decree went

out from Caesar Augustus that all the world should be taxed

 

Glories stream from heaven above

Heavenly hosts sing Alleluia

 

Church-lights dim! Flame passed from friend to candle

Silent night! English sang then in German-like Handel

 

Christ the Savior is born

Christ the Savior is born

 

Exit service to greet soft-fluff gentle-tingle dancing snow

Just like it fell on eastern-desert rustic stable millennia ago

 

Stille nacht! Helige nacht!

Alles schlaft! Einsam wacht!

 

Embrace child-curious Fantasy-delight Magic-snow Peace!

 

Frohliche Weihnachten!

 Crazy!?—“Me”!?...Hmm!?

 

Wow! “He”? “She”? & ‘It”? NO-gender classification, recognition or identity!? What!?

 

I seem to be specifically “simple” in intellectual pursuits; Logic-knowledge reigns Supreme!

 

Faith! Family! Freedom! A clear, succinct, concise mantra suffices satiated-spirit Peace!

 

Nothing exists, nor can be conjured, that is not easily resolved absent “Love!” and “Truth!”.

Focus: Love!---Blossom: Life!...Celebrate a Peace!-bouquet!

 

I most certainly appreciate natural-Beauty! It is second only to my love of Intelligence!

 

Too easy for me to discern “female”-goddess! Male, too, can be handsome---but…who cares?

 

And---I love nature, the cosmos. Rainbows! Butterflies! & Unicorns!...Value!-virtue! Amen!

 

Maybe I’ve determined that “Beauty” is in the eye of the beholder”! Subjective-objectivity!?

 

Traditional! Conservative!---Amen!!!...God! Bile! Constitution! Love! Honor! Truth! Life!

 

Let’s see? One man and one woman resulting holy-sacred Love!---Cherished…Peace! Amen!

 

Christian-generosity!---Honest! True! Purposed!...I really an ole Santa Clause! Hmm!

 

Don’t indulge social media!? Whatever that claims to be at any given moment. No! Thanks!

 Happy Thanksgiving-wish! (2022)

 

’Tis the wee-time hours of midnight-morn Thanksgiving Day!

Magic Unicorn visits Gabriella Leigh intending frolic-play.

 

Quickly awake like a white lightning-flash for more adventure-fun.

Gabriella chatters but kitty-cat Penelope’s nap is not quite done.

 

“Oh! Magic!” Little girl says. “Thanksgiving adventure-time!”

Magic bows on bended knee. “Thy any-wish will be sublime!”

 

Kitty snuggle-nestles deeper in warm blankets trying to sleep longer.

“Miss Penelope!” Urges Gabriella. “To miss Thanksgiving is wronger.”

 

Magic laughs. “Sometimes your words challenge right-usage.

“But, Darlin’---I Love you!...So I’ll not correct Missy abusive!”

 

Genttly-cradling tired Miss Penelope, Gabriella mounts her steed.

“Off to the Great Northwest coast, Magic, for adventure! Indeed!”

 

“Your slightest wish, Ma’am, is my completed command. Away!”

Kitty sleeps in little girl’s coat resting for future-time to fun-play.

 

The trio lightning-soars prairie, river, mountain white peaks.

“I hear the ocean surf!” Gabriella Leaigh excitedly speaks.

 

“There! Oh! Magic Unicorn! That escarpment off to south-yonder.

“One of my favorite vistas along Pacific coast Awesome Wonder!”

 

Gently the adventurers alight high upon the precipice overlooking.

One Spectacular! Fantastic!-view!  A Proudly “undertooking”!?

 

“Oh! Magic! Such grandeur!” Gabriella breathes as Penelope awakens.

Magic agrees. “Gorgeous! God’s Love for mother-earth is not forsaken.”

 

Gabriella kneels in prayer---Magic bows…Penelope crosses her paws.

The reverent threesome silent-prays confession-redemption for any flaws.

 

“And---Dear Lord!...Thank Thee for precious-Life! For sacred-Love!

“For Saints! & Angels! Virtue-people! Earth and holy-heaven above!”

 

On yonder Peace! summit the trio sat mesmerized in satiated contemplation.

Pink-blush dawn ushered sunrise to interrupt Thanksgiving-concentration.

 

Safely back home to celebrate holy-sacred Thanksgiving Day feast-festivities.

“Peace!” Prayed Gabriella Leigh. “Amen!” Answered kinfolk-Love civilities.

Amen!
