Memories and Snow

Listen to poem:

many Christmas’s gone by many beautiful memories Memories of our children Memories of giving and sharing Sharing our love for each other Sharing affection for fellow men Men and women rejoice nativity Men and women of honour Honour the meaning of this time Honour whose name we celebrate Celebrate by helping others Celebrate with love in your hearts Hearts full of hope and generosity Hearts and minds join together Together we enjoy festivities Together we can show support Support for the unfortunate Support for the old Old times remembered Old friends come to mind Mind the chestnuts roasting Mind our children Children are our future Children full of joy Joy we show in life Joy given by giving Giving to our loved ones Giving sincere best wishes Wishes for peace Wishes of kindness Kindness we receive Kindness we express Express humanity Express your feelings Feelings for each other Feelings of hopefulness Hopefulness bestowed Hopefulness in faith Faith in our communities Faith in our thoughts Thoughts of Christmas Thoughts of absent friends Friends that remember us Friends old and new New festive decorations New pure white snow Snow flakes produce magic Snow creating a white Christmas Christmas Magic. 12/14/2017 Contest a blitzing Christmas Sponsored by Taai Tekai.

Roy, an enchanting write. Such joyous, insightful and loving reveries and sentiments expressed beautifully and spiritually. I especially love how you ended your write with 'white Christmas magic' - I hope for that every year and this year we had a lovely Christmas morning dusting, pristine and serene. Best wishes for a win.I hope you had a wonderful Christmas and my warmest new year wishes to you my friend.. ~Susan
