The winner of our eighth annual Mosaic Musings Holiday Classic has been chosen! A special goes out to our judges Bev (Peterpan), Wally (Thoth), Snow (Eisa), Sylvia (Psyche) and myself. They were tasked with choosing 3 of the submissions they felt best represented the season, allocating 3 points for their top nod, two for second and one for third. The winning submission received 14 points awarded out of a possible 30, taking in 47% of the total - FANTABULOUS results!

CONGRATULATIONS to Larry for his winning entry, "A Star" in our eighth annual Mosaic Musings Holiday Classic! May your holidays always be memorable ...

A Star

The firelight from the hearth reflects
on tinseled tree aglitter with
small twinkling ornaments. Projects
the essence of a garnered myth
which lends no grace; no love or peace
to those in need, without a prayer.
No rescue from the cold, surcease
from widened need to give and share.

As choirs sing carols in the night
of precious babe, a star and kings;
a weeping mother knows the plight
of starving child. Her vigil brings
no solace. Tears, her visage mar,
illuminated by a star.

WELL DONE LARRY! HAPPY HOLIDAYS ALL THE YEAR THROUGH!
