Christmas Tree,Menorah Meet-Up

Christmas Tree, Menorah Meet-Up





A Christmas tree and a Menorah,woke one morning right next to
one another!
Both were shocked to be so placed, thinking this was such a total 
disgrace!
Well, being immobile there was nothing either could do!
They each avoided looking at one another, in a stubborn stew!



Eventually they did, then a great friendship was launched and they
even developed a fondness for each other.
I heard them chatting and talking about their commonalities.
And even..how better this world could possibly be!



Someone lit them at sundown, and the lights of each..glowed.
With their loving brotherhood and whispers...shimmering on the 
beauteous, silvered-falling snow.



They taught each other songs of their respective heritages.
Swapped stories of what their lights represented.
There was no chatter of who was wrong or who was right!
They were there to simply light the human spirit, tonight~
I, silently and helplessly, wept in utter delight!



             Merry Christmas, Happy Hannukah
                                From:
                     Panagiota  Romios

Gershon Wolf December 17, 2019 at 9:28 AM Love his, and it's an accurate reflection of what happens when devout Christians and Jews talk AND LISTEN to each other --- more bringing them together than what separates them, although there are, indeed, points of separation (not to be ignored or whitewashed). Lovely! Peace and Joy! ~ Gershon Panagiota Romios December 17, 2019 at 9:42 AM Thank you for replying."Having a Listening" is far more significant than being tone deaf. Righteousness will not work either. And of course there are points of deviation! Nonetheless, both are holidays of significance. Happy Hannukah and Merry Christmas! Panagiota xxx
