Deck the Hall with Boughs of Jolly

12.03.2013 by Leah // 2 Comments

My favorite way of 'decking the hall':  filling up our console table with Christmas ornaments. I chose to "grow" my Christmas ornaments collection by adding new pieces each year, instead of buying everything new to match a chosen theme or color palette.   Red, green and gold have always been our Christmas colors.  A bit traditional, yes, but nothing look so festive than ...

To My Father By Georgia Harkness A giant pine, ma To My Father
By Georgia Harkness

A giant pine, magnificent and old
Stood staunch against the sky and all around
Shed beauty, grace and power.
Within its fold birds safely reared their young.
The velvet ground beneath was gentle,
and the cooling shade gave cheer to passers by.
Its towering arms a landmark stood, erect and unafraid,
As if to say, “Fear naught from life’s alarms”.
It fell one day.
Where it had dauntless stood was loneliness and void.
But men who passed paid tribute – and said,
“To know this life was good,
It left it’s mark on me. Its work stands fast”.
And so it lives. Such life no bonds can hold –
This giant pine, magnificent and old.

~

To our shelter and safety while he lived, we miss you so much.
Happy 2nd Year in Heaven, Daddy ❤
