CONGRATULATIONS to Lindi aka Aphrodite for her winning entry, "Angels Hark" in our seventh annual Mosaic Musings Holiday Classic! (and it's her birthday this weekend too)!  May your holidays always be memorable ...  ~MM Staff   Angels Hark The snow is falling lightly down To kiss the season’s b l e s s e d ground As smiling children lose their frown The snow is falling lightly down Bright twinkling lights glow through each town Full hearts at Christmas, all resound The snow is falling lightly down To kiss the season’s b l e s s e d ground Sweet milk and cookies leave his sign Big Red has snacked and brought the toys And houses smell of mint and pine Sweet milk and cookies leave his sign While toasty fires spread warmth and shine For small and bigger girls and boys Sweet milk and cookies leave his sign Big Red has snacked and brought the toys December’s meaning makes its mark As people gather on His day To honor Christ the angels hark December’s meaning makes its mark when kings and shepherds trekked in dark to meet the Savior where he lay December’s meaning makes its mark As people gather on His day WELL DONE LINDI! HAPPY HOLIDAYS ALL THE YEAR THROUGH!

Hi Lindi,
Congratulations on your much deserved win in the MMHC contest. An early "Happy Birthday" also. Your entry encompased the spirit of the Christmas holiday, traditions and joy but placed the emphasis on where it needed to be; celebrating His birth. Larry ······· ·······When power leads man toward arrogance, poetry reminds him of his limitations. When power narrows the areas of man's concern, poetry reminds him of the richness and diversity of his existence. When power corrupts, poetry cleanses.
