Happy Birthday! Elaine! & Frank! + Merry Christmas post

 

Happy Birthday! “Sister”-Elaine!

(Yea! A lovely “Birthday”-limerick! Celebrate!)

 

I once knew a “handicapper(?)” name of Elaine

A Saintly-“Sister” image which I shall explain

Tender-hearted! Christian-generous! And kind

Faux “Land baron(?)” vagabond-Fred’s lucky find

Sage-advice: Give him a one-way ticket to Spain

Amen!

 

Happy Birthday! Lovely-Lady Candice Leah & Carl

 

 

 

Happy Birthday! “Brother”-Frank!

(Celebrate! A loving ‘Birthday’-limerick! Yea!)

 

I once knew a “monk(?)” who oft’ venued Kentucky

A Playboy the Rebel’s referred to as Damn!-Yankee “Lucky!”

He says, “Just two states away is right “where it’s-at”

A lovely-southern maiden-“hottie” he calls his Love!-“Pat”

Alas! “Brother”-Frank admits his life is just “ducky(?)”

Amen!

 

Happy Birthday! Lovely-Lady Candice & Carl

Three fledglings in tow following “Daddy” Christmas Eve to visit Grandma’s house just five doors down Main Street and I thought I heard ole Santa’s sleigh toll “Jingle-bells”! (age-8)

 

Grandma’s living room 10-feet high pine-scented giant-tree glow-lit with color-lights sparkle hanging shiny-bright ornament-globes reflecting silver crinkle-tensile ice towering above a pure cotton-white Christmas skirt displaying tiny village-houses with soft-light in windows. (age-5)

 

Nashville for Thanksgiving with a huge gathered-clan and “clumsy”-I spilled a glass of water in the center of the spread!? Ugh! They cleaned it up absent any word! Saints! & Angels! (age-9)

 

Grandma’s Christmas’ feast of baked-turkey & ham with all and every trimming Delight family-gathering to celebrate the holiday in a mountain of color-paper gifts unwrapped and then dessert in fancy cut-glass crystal dainty-bowls of fruit cocktail whipped-cream, cake/pie! (youth)

 

New bikes for the 3-kids! Oh! Wonderful! 3-speed Schwinn racer-Red! Wow! (age-11)

 

Remington .22 pump-action rifle! A scope one week later for a birthday gift! Great! (age-12)

 

Christmas cold-season ice-skating on the farm pond at night with a blazing fire-warm! (youth)

 

Shoveling Christmas-snow clearing walks and paths to celebrate dear Mother Nature! (youth)

 

One Christmas-“special” (they all were so) Dad gave Mom a fur coat and brought home a stray black cocker-spaniel female he found on the St. Louis freeway Christmas Eve! Wow! (age-12)

 

Ole Santa just couldn’t wait for kids of his own and Lovely-Lady Candice Leah so he could don the “’Tis better to give than to receive”-mantle only to quick-learn that in the Charity-of-Love is a return much greater than any present ever received---Christian-generosity! Amen! (life)

 

Each holy-sacred Christmas (and every day) “GREATER” than the one before! Joy! Amen! (life)
