I wish you a blessed and happy Christmas and holiday. Following is an original poem by Cindi Reiss of the Phoenix Writer’s Club. Thank you Cindi!
In this month of December of goodwill and cheer
I wish you all joy in the beliefs you hold dear.
Lighting Hanukkah candles, spinning dreidels of clay
May peace be upon you as you honor each day.
As you set your Nativity under the tree
May your hearts fill with joy, love and glee.
May the principles of Kwanzaa fill up your abode
As you honor your culture and follow that road.
However you celebrate and those who do not
May your minds fill with optimism, entering each thought.
So send off your cheer in your writerly ways
I wish you much goodness for all of your days.
The photo above is of Nancy Zguda in front of my Christmas tree Christmas 2011. I miss my good friend dearly. She passed in May 2013. It was at her memorial service I realized that I must finish this project I started so many years ago. I booked airfare for Poland two weeks later and have been writing ever since.
