Come Christmas Morn Please Click Link above to hear music and my voice recording. Music: In the Bleak Midwinter by Steve Schuck from the album "A Celtic Celebration"  Watercolour Painting:“Warm Remembrance” Artist: Linda L. Dowd Come Christmas Morn by Linda L. Dowd The air is crisp this winter’s night. ~ The skies an incandescent gray. All is still in my home town. ~ For come the morn is Christmas day. Feathered plumes of chimney smoke, ~ They curl and swirl in slow arise, Looking like a Hallmark postcard, ~ Heaven’s hearth in realize. Distant bells are ringing softly. ~ Memories flood from long ago. When all was charmed ~ so pure and simple. ~ As Old Man River, life did flow. Praise is sung thru’ Yuletide carols. ~ Around a warming pine log fire. Merry moments to be cherished. ~ Of faith and hope thru’ song inspire. The air is crisp this winter’s night. ~ The skies an incandescent gray. All is still in my home town. ~ For come the morn is Christmas day. . |

Distant bells are ringing softly. ~ Memories flood from long ago. When all was charmed ~ so pure and simple. ~ As Old Man River, life did flow. Wonderful, dear Maga Linda, Angelo Terrestre! You made my own memories surface and you intensified my longing for such a Christmas morn. You are such a multitalented artist, it is a joy to have this total showering of your art all in one. Velvet voice, magical words and on top of it a very skilled and creative paint brush!! I love to dwell in your beauty! Smiles and hugs. Margherita   |

What a beautiful voice you have and what a beautiful poem you wrote and your art work is awesome. Really enjoyed it, at the very moment when Christmas Eve turns into Christmas morning (at my place). Happy Christmas to you dear friend. Like scattered leaves...my words will flow |
