Christmas Dreams of Us




"Christmas Dreams of Us"

Christmas 
dreams 
of us 

we sleep 
to dream 
of better things

we muddle 
through it all 
some how

Christmas
dreams 
of us

it whispers 
in our minds 
let Christmas stay always

inside the heart
beats singing 
its longest carol

Next year 
all our troubles
will be out of sight

Christmas 
dreams
of us

we sleep
we dream 
there we meet 

each 
long
night

Christmas 
dreams 
of us

Christmas dreams of and in us most certainly! If I could I'd tell ya (over a hot toddy) the midnight tale from years past (as I secretly placed the gift of bird feeder full of seed on my neighbor's porch), when I realize that I was Santa Clause - simultaneously possessing humans all over the world with the gift of giving.

a hot toddy, not a mulled wine ? ... I can just envisage you tiptoeing around in your elf suit...Merry Christmas to you James Moore. I think this trio too many egg nogs. I'm racing off to make RUM BALLS, a nip for me, two for the recipe.

I enjoyed your wonderful write/pictures. Christmas is one day but should be everyday. Many miss the meaning. Have a Very Blessed Christmas Everyday............

“They say Aslan is on the move- perhaps has already landed." And now a very curious thing happened. None of the children knew who Aslan was any more than you do; but the moment the Beaver had spoken these words everyone felt quite different.

Perhaps it has sometimes happened to you in a dream that someone says something which you don't understand but in the dream it feels as if it has some enormous meaning- either a terrifying one which turns the whole dream into a nightmare or else a lovely meaning too lovely to put into words, which makes the dream so beautiful that you remember it all your life and are always wishing you could get into that dream again.

It was like that now. At the name of Aslan each one of the children felt something jump in its inside. Edmund felt a sensation of mysterious horror. Peter felt suddenly brave and adventurous. Susan felt as if some delicious smell or some delightful strain of music had just floated by her. And Lucy got the feeling you have when you wake up in the morning and realize that it is the beginning of the holidays or the beginning of summer.” (C.S. Lewis, "The Lion, the Witch and the Wardrobe")
