Santa is done
The stockings are empty
The presents opened
The Yuletide log is burned out
The tree is shedding needles
The mistletoe is drooping, but hanging on
The holiday pudding is sitting in the fridge, forgotten
And the tired reindeer and elves take a short break till January first to do it all again.

A fresh chaste landscape
Kissed by the morning sunlight
Causing snow to blush

A song that makes you want to fall in love:
“Unchained Melody” by the Righteous Brothers. If anyone finds or has a recording where both sing instead of just this version, let me know, send a link please. I couldn’t find that version. I prefer the version with the lower voice joining in.
A song by an artist no longer living:
Luther Vandross, “This is Christmas”
**
I liked most of his movies including White Christmas, The Inspector General, Hans Christian Anderson and The Court Jester.
“Sergeant of the Guard:The Road in Iraq” by R. Morgan Chrihfield
***
Joe was speaking to his Sergeant about the current news. . .There’s “flaws in the system I witnessed, I was a better person for having” seen it for myself.
Joe was worried about the future of the people in this country. They had arrived to help, save lives of the innocent, and yet at times it seemed futile. They were not getting the support they needed from back home.
“It’s always been this way, Joe. Some bigwig makes a decision with no knowledge of actual war or combat, and plays with our lives like we’re in a video game. It’s terrible what’s happening to people like this around the world, but we can only follow orders.”

A delightful gift
Comes with no cost
Drawn on your windows –
It’s the gift of frost!
Patterns unimagined fill your vision
Is it Jack or nature’s decision
To paint such beauty upon the glass
Artistic works of the highest class!
A song by a band that isn’t together anymore: “Here Comes the Sun” by the Beatles
Making an edible cell
Too early to study
Big brother love
Cool, we get to go to Barnes and Noble!
Pouring rain at soccer
