Christmas waves a magic wand over this world, and behold, everything is softer and more beautiful. -Norman Vincent Peal
Holiday magic,
What does it mean?
Can wishes be wrapped
In dreams unseen?
Can thoughts twinkle
Like Christmas stars
Or might they jingle
Jangle from afar?
Can December be filled
With fanciful thoughts
Of dreams fulfilled
And wintery spots?
Can holiday magic
Dust my abode
With abracadabra
To decorated-mode?

Dear Santa,
If you can send some elves to my house to help me clear a path for holiday magic to happen, I would be grateful. Don't peek at the mess right now. There are only a few days left to turn my house into a holiday house worthy of the season. With luck and a few magical elves, I just might get the house fully decorated this weekend and the yards ready for your sleigh to visit. Thanks for listening to my plea. I do want to greet you with glee.
Yours Truly, A Frantic Grandma

Join me at Michelle Kogan's blog here to read her tribute to Ukraine artists who remain brave amidst wartime situations. She offers a beautiful piece of art and poem, Morning Song Gift as well. Thanks to Michelle, the host of Poetry Friday this week, you will find more poetic goodness from a variety of writers.
From my house to yours, may the magic of the holidays bring you good tidings!
