                                                      A heavenly light
                                                   that guided wise men
                                                 to the place where He lie
                                           In a manger on a blanket of hay

                                            His only son who died  on a cross 
                                                 for teaching us to love and
                                                      help one another
                                                           for this is

Andrea Dietrich January 19, 2010 at 7:57 AM Hey, this would look beautiful on the front of a Christmas card,Lainie. Nice one! Sorry you have had to see so many animals dying. It's very sad. Glad you liked my rondeau. I have yet to get those books in the mail. I feel like my head is spinning. So many things I REALLY want to do, like being here, and so little time. I really hope one day I get to retire. I'll see ya later! andrea
