The air is still and warm, yet the clouds rush by in the upper sky. The Blackbird calls a final song on this eve. The cottage lies snug and warm. All is well, all is as it should be. Dogs are walked and cats sleep in the warmest corners of the cottage. The Angel dances on the tree. A vegetable soup simmers atop the stove. Wood-smoke fills the air outside. The stillness is magical. Contentment reigns. Happy Christmas. Peace and joy to you this eve.
