Autumn is a second spring when every leaf is a flower. by Albert Camus
Catch a falling autumn leaf for good luck Bite into a crisp apple As if for the first time In the garden of Eden Let Spring wash over you See every flower grow in slow motion Walk through the seasons a second time When every falling maple leaf Becomes a wish in dreaming… ©AnitaDawes2022

Christmas may well be celebrated
On the wrong day for Christ’s birth
He also may not have been who we think.
Who cares, Christmas is one of the best days of the year
No matter the date
Snowmen to make under fairy lights
We get to be with family
Eat good food, drink good wine
The kind Jesus turned from water, who knows
It’s tastes good because the company’s good
Gifts are exchanged, games played
The young ones fall asleep cuddling a new toy
The old ones nodding off in their armchair
The remaining few whispering now
So as not to wake the sleeping beauties
New years eve we’ll meet again
In between we skype and visit
Remembering each other’s warmth
The one gift that needs no money
Merry Christmas to one and all…
