Where does life begin and where does it end Xmas cheer begins...I have no issues to contend; Not of the flock that followed the Holy Prince not of the stock that has believed in Him since. Who am I, a mystery man with cloak and knife to seek revenge on the world, and stir up strife; am I from heaven above with wings curled up that visits homes as a stranger when you sup? I am no devil from below,nor an angel from on high the conduct of earthly lives is not for me to spy; I hold not the answers to your origins or demise I hold it fit not to love first and then despise. How do our lives begin and how our future ends Holiday cheer seems shallow with no future to contend; as one of the flock that knew Him, in deserts first I am one to be careful where my ambitions thirst.

Thought provoking as it is, I wish you all a happy season, let's not get too, too serious about what's happening under our noses all over the world but be a little more conscientious. |

Some very interesting thoughts, beautifully penned, Martin. I especially liked "How do our lives begin and how our future ends Holiday cheer seems shallow with no future to contend; as one of the flock that knew Him, in deserts first I am one to be careful where my ambitions thirst." I have noticed this year that there are not as many houses which are decorated for Christmas...I think people are still in mourning for those who died on 9/11. Holiday cheer does seem so shallow this year, doesn't it? Thanks for giving words to that thought.  copyright2001 Lyra Nesius |

Wow, a lot to ponder in this one. Very interesting writing. From another Canuck, best wishes for the season. If she who dies with the most toys wins, then can I have some toy boys please? |
