The Hallmark man visited my backyard < !signature-->he brought his little bag of tricks in the night, he began to flick from his little bag of treat a landscape such as would be neat to see upon a Christmas card, to see what he did in my backyard… early early this morning riser, little sleep doesn't leave me wiser but see the dreamscape set before the Hallmark man came at four and set before me such a scene yes, it was thus a vision's dream… Fall's colored leaves covered earth's floor and crystalline sprinkles covered them more with little light, the sparkling was set before my eyes, this beauty met and all I could think as I opened the door was that "the Hallmark man came the night before…" Karilea If I whisper, will you listen?... I would rather be silent and write, then speak loudly and be bound. KRJ [This message has been edited by Sunshine (edited 11-11-2000).] |

I have to depend on Hallmark to remind me what snow looks like. Thank you for letting me look into your backyard. |

Yes, I believe God designs most of his winter scenes after Hallmark cards, and they are truly beautiful, aren't they? I loved this poem from your creative mind Liz |

Agreeing with all of the previous replies. And let me add, the title was so perfect and creative. I am trying to go to bed here, and that title just said "READ ME FIRST", so I did. Loved it. Sandra |
