Merry Happy Feliz

2024.12.25

Good morning, that wonderful way.

Made it.

Merry happy feliz.

Hope your holiday is a good one.

Quiet this morning. Not a creature is stirring business.

Except, perhaps, a ghost's journal entry full of Christmas puns and carol allusions.

Perhaps.

So this is Christmas? What have you done?

Deck the halls? Ring your silver bells with a jingle while dashing through the snow.

Keep the jingle-jangle down. It's a silent night.

Don't fret, though. The Herald Angels will be harking soon enough. Then, feel free to rock around O' Tannenbaum.

I don't feel much like writing about Christmas.

No, Bah humbugs here.

Only the sun just up over a soft orange horizon encourages a gray sky to fade into blue.

The snow stayed. Kept the cold that will turn humid with the noonday light.

The conifers too big for living rooms, still make the horizon line, still top mountains, still keep watch on expanding daylight days, start preparations for the gift of Spring's rebirth.

I don't feel much like writing about Christmas.

Though, I just did.

Take care, we made it, remember friends, family and Life, and be thankful, maybe give them a gift because they choose to keep their stories going so yours can go on too, and have your better day.
