  Christmas gifts...My older brother, Jonny, asked me if I liked high end coffee. I said "yes". He said "check this out". We went to his gragage and he took me to a place on his bench and I noticed a large plastic Folgers Coffee container. He said "check it out"...Nothing against Folgers...but. hello? I opened the Folgers container to find inside, a mason jar with an aroma far removed from coffee...a mason jar almost full with the most perfectly manicured bud you have ever seen...mellow, happy, positive high with one major downside...munchies!!!Bigtime

  Now I'm not usually given to chastisement,so I will be brief.

  To the protagonistas.Relax.Enjoy.Its the Christmas thread.

  And so,Part the Second;

  Now its all over,the feasting the wine and fine repast

  Sit back back and ponder,feet up at last

  I think now of friends,and what they might do

  I wonder my friend,what about you?

  Then there are others,my thoughts cannot touch

  I know deep inside,I love and miss them so much

  There won't be a Christmas,nor gift to untie

  But always to them,I would send my love fly

  　

  　

  Now down to the beach,watch waves on the shore

  Soft moves the shingle,then comes back for more

  A splash at my feet,where toe meets the tide

  My heart pumps the more,soft tears I cant hide

  Some voice I cant hear,Yet rising aloft,

  I sing to the sun my song to the lost

  　

  Gently at first but gaining in depth

  I walk to the voices,where once I had wept

  They bring me the joy that ere had been gone

  Water and wave touch me,and take off my song

  I step to the shore cleansed and fresh to the eve

  My friends who cant answer can hear me I truly believe

  Back up the rock,those cliffs and the track

  In front of my fire,Its good to be back

  You are a rare bird in these parts Lizzie.  I'm sure the friends you have lost have felt your love on this Christmas day.  God bless you.

  Sorry Richard...the word 'preach' might have been a bit harsh

  Not everybody that plays this great game follows what is taught in the Bible, I better be quiet now before I get meself in more trouble...lol
