Joe's Christmas

Nice poem, @Joe Riley .

 

Here's a Christmas tree village....not mine but one I found on Pinterest....looks like I didn't save just the one...oh well.

 

Wow, that would be a challenge! Thank you, Chrissy!

 

O Holy Night....

 

@Joe Riley , that is my favorite verse out of the whole bible. I believe that that is the main message that Christ was sent to convey to us. If only we would listen.

 

My Wife originally wrote this poem, titled "Our Christmas Cat" to enter in a poetry contest in a magazine. She did not win a prize, but I think she wrote one.

Our Christmas Cat (2009)


What does she dream, our Christmas cat,
As she curls beneath the tree
To rest in peaceful sleep, content,
Beside the Christmas scene?

What does she dream, our Christmas cat,
As breaths come slow, with
Body still, she lies
At dreamland’s door?

What does she dream, our Christmas cat,
Of ribbons and paper,
Of Christmas past,
The chase, the hunt, the laughter?

What does she dream, our Christmas cat,
Only she knows,
As she rises and yawns
And stretches and turns.

What does she dream, our Christmas cat,
As she curls beneath the tree,
To sleep again and dream
The dreams that only cats can see?

 

Lovely poem....she should have won in my opinion.

 

My thought was how kitties always seem to be able to relax We could take some lessons I find comfort lying beside a christmas tree with it's wonderful smells, beautiful decorations, and lights. the lights really do it for me

Dreams?? I would guess for kitty it would go something like this:

 

HAHA! How to tuna kitten!
