Sleigh bells and snow showers

love in a one horse open sleigh

Courtship is best when snuggled with your 

sweetheart along a country road with 

sleigh bells ringing and singing a 

familiar tune from long ago... 

The horse is prancing and our hearts are 

dancing to violins and angel harps 

filling the sky with colors of undying 

love as snowflakes fall softly... 

Steeple bells ring in a Silent Night of 

remembrance of Christmas past 

when wise men followed a Star above 

Angels sang the First Noel joyfully...  

Today we pray for children every where 

blessings and gentle loving care with 

warm beds and plenty of food 

and music and lessons to learn... Amen

my prayer would be for children to grow up and experience what we did as kids, adolescents...teens....a simpler life...where we enjoyed things like hayrides....country roads at night...nature...love in simplest form...

i remember how Christmas used to have so much more meaning when i was a child....now it is just so commercial...

[Patricia Wedel]

dear Jacob... yes, the nostalgic of being together with moonlight beams shining through the trees read moredear Jacob... yes, the nostalgic of being together with moonlight beams shining through the trees
cannot be replaced with expensive gifts of electronic games. However our spirit still longs for the romance of blue lights twinkling over roof tops and houses trimmed in fantasies of reindeer in bright lights
To our delight. Commercial madness will not destroy our heart and soul. truly, Pat

Holidays are so much better when with loved ones... but we must not forget those without and pray for them... Amen.

lovely sentiments pat and yes let's hope the not so fortunate do have a safe and happy xmas and peace for the world although that seems mystical.

[Patricia Wedel]

dear andrew... yes peace is mystical. With enough peace lovers .... like snow flakes we could cover the earth and love would be white as lillies in the field. Your review is
a world of blessings for "mankind" and babies and children. God bless us all including "Tiny Tim". Amen
