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’.

Before you go to sleep tonight,

know that you are Blessed.

And may a miracle of love

surround you as you rest.

Today’s the day we give our thanks.

For all we have.  And, do.

For all the folks we care about.

I give my thanks for you.

I’m sending you a Magic Carpet Ride.

I’m sending you up to Mars.

I’m sending you a cloud of Pixie Dust

to carry you through the stars.

I’m sending you billowing rainbows,

and, a field of four leaf clover

I’m sending you a day of happiness.

You can live it Over and Over.

The skies are gloomy and raw and gray.

It’s a drizzly, dour November day.

My heart is happy!  Oh, Joy! Oh, Glee!

It’s how November is supposed to be.

The world’s become

plumb mean and nasty.

I’m going to go on strike!

I’ll hide in bed…cover up my head….

till Hope comes down the pike.
