ELECTRIC CHRISTMAS LIGHTS @ Thematic Attic with A-Rhodi
What is it about
Christmas Lights
That brings Holiday Magic
To people of every age?
From a simple strand of lights hung
In the snow laden branches of a tree,
To the colorful lights that outline every
Nook and cranny to become a beacon
Of the Season and Holiday Display
These simple lights become the
Heart and Soul‘s reflection of
The Joy we express for
The Holidays.
Let your muse run through
These Holiday Lights
With your poetry
Take us along…
Send us a HEART
Let us know you enjoyed our blog
Happy Holidays to all!
Greetings Poets and Pals!
First I want to welcome all of you here tonight…but I
also want to dedicate this blog to my daughter Cassandra, she helped me build this blog by picking out the pictures..for you
see the 20th is her 3rd Birthday and she just loves all the Christmas lights that come out during this time of year. Thus she was my inspiration and muse for our theme.
We both wish you the joy we find with these lights too!
Happy Holidays to you!
:love: :love:
Jon and Cassie

MAGIC IN THE AIR
~
Holiday Magic
For the very young at heart
Colorful lights for all to see
A beacon to bright the season that brings joy
All over this land
Reflection every where flow
See smiles for miles
Reds blues greens yellows
So brightly lit
Trees fill
To the brim
With glimmer that gleams
Holiday magic for all age a like
See the stars in their eyes a glowin
Sliver bells ringin
Children singin
Cant you just her
The sounds of joy all about
Lights of many
All sizes
Big a bright
Lights the way
For Santa will soon be on his way

So wonderfully festive! While we don’t have the snow on the ground, there are lots of lights to remind us of the Holidays. Beautiful blog and challenge. And Happy Birthday to your daughter, Jon. Big Hugs to All on this extremely chilly Southern California Thursday morning. :love: :love: :love:
Written a couple of years ago but glad to share it again as my muse is working on something new . . . . The snow on the ground in the picture is a bit of wishful thinking for sure.

SNEAKING UP ON ME
I can’t help but notice,
I can’t help but see
that the holidays
are definitely
sneaking up on me.
And try as I might,
it’s hard to ignore
that the neighborhood
is already
a lot brighter
than before.
The lights on the trees
certainly give it away
all twinkling and bright,
well what can I say?
The holidays are approaching
and I cannot ignore
the lights on the trees
and the wreaths on the door.
And Santa and his reindeer
all cheery and bright,
I can’t help but notice
on this warm California night
when I have to imagine
there’s snow on the ground
for a chill in the air
is nowhere to be found.
When it’s dark
I can almost
believe it is so,
that the holidays are here
or almost, for you know
that the stores
have been stocked
with decorations galore
as they hope
we’ll be coming back
and buying some more.
