Reader Challenges - 'Twas the Night Before Christmas...
Twas the night before Christmas
And the TV was on
blaring some nonsense
which I didn't want to hear
I looked out the window
saw the night cool and clear
when suddenly some snowflakes
floated down on the sill
I turned off the TV
and looked at the snow
slowly falling on the landscape
and glistening below.
This magical moment
made me aware
that it's the beauty of nature
which all mankind does share
Let it be a fitting thought
for this time of year.
Thus, Season's greetings to all,
good health and good cheer!
