30 day Christmas photography challenge full of festive wholesomeness.
6. Christmas Lights
Who doesn’t love Christmas lights strung about the house, lighting up the night?
I certainly adore those Holiday lights, especially if they are rhythmically with beats and flashes!
Neal on the other hand, couldn’t quite take my flashing show creativity, so no blinking lights again this year.
I hope you enjoy this little poem I found.
Christmas Lights
They shine in spires and windows golden;
Myriads of lights like curtains rise.
In the festooned tree, the stars enfolden Reflect the softened beauty of the skies.
Homes are bedecked in all their glory, With twinkling lights above the arching door;
The shadows in the distance hover
As tree-decked hues sparkle the more.
The Christmas lights like gems are glowing, Encased in quaintest filigree,
While softened winter winds are blowing
The chimes of Christmas bells to me.
As as the bright lights shine and glisten And children sing, O lovely band,
"Glory to God in the Highest", The caroling notes spread o'er the land.
And as we join the past and future, Our hearts in sweet remembrance rise,
No deed can dim the glorious vision, For the sweet old story never dies.
