Merry Christmas, Ev’ryone!

And may your day be Blessed.

And may your Twenty-Twenty Three

abound with Happ-i-ness.

My problem is extreme old age.

Prognosis is:  incurable.

I medicate with Starbucks, and,

that makes it quite endurable.

May this candle’s bright, clear light

stay with you through this day.

And may it give support to you

in all you do and say.

There’s still wet snow on the deck and the grass.

It’ll take awhile for this all to pass.

But, I have to say that i feel better

when precipitation is warmer and wetter.

The night is dark.

The sky hangs low.

The air is raw and chill.

From the sodden, leaden clouds

the snow falls as it will.

In the darkness of the night,

there burns a candle flame.

The flame is steady.  Clear and true.

It’s burning in your name.

Snow!  Snow!  Go Away!

Melt Off, and Do Not Tarry!

Come again some other day.

Perhaps in January.

The Mukilteo schools are closed.

The weather made a mess.

Power’s off.  Roads are bad.

It’s just unsafe, I guess.

These blessings come to

soothe your day

and ease your troubled heart.

These blessings come to

lend support to

forge another start.

My driveway’s white with winter snow.

There’ll be no comin’ or goin’.

The snow fell quiet in the night.

Not a blade of grass is showin’.
