*12 Days of Christmas Memories and Adventures
On The Third Day of Christmas

It isn’t the gifts, or the party clothes, it isn’t the delicious meals and the sweet desserts

that I enjoy in the dead of Winter, at Christmas time

I love this time of year because

the world comes alive

in shades of red, gold and green

and the frozen ground is an ocean of promise

waiting to come to shore.

*12 Days of Christmas Memories

Abid Khan

On the first day of Christmas my true love gave to me

a walk across a snow lined road and icy sidewalks

under a dark sky full of silver stars

with my breath hanging around my face

like wedding veil stitched by hand and not machine.

 

My true love  had forgotten to pick me up from the bus stop

but it was a beautiful  gift none the less

that he would have never given me

on purpose.

It’s Yule Caturday

I don’t know if the Yule Cat is part of the Caturday experience, but you tell this bad boy no. Ha. I didn’t think so.
