Christmas Always (Holiday delights in Prose 'n Rhyme)

By Carl Schuler

"Christmas Always" is an attitude toward the special season throughout the year presented in celebration by rhyme in poetry form and prose designed to emote traditional holiday rememberances for young and old alike. Poems revere Christmas in devotional light from religious inspirational rhyme to moral presentations of the virtues and Christian values through plays, stories and exerpts from several of the author''s writing, particularly several taken from "Christmas Treasures", a trilogy spanning three Christmas Eve celebrations shared with the reader by a loving four generation family caught up in the adventure of living life to the fullest, celebrating one another, participating in the daily activities of the various memories, making life pleasant for each member, young, senior and all those in between. Weaving the awesome goodness of the Creator into the fabric of Jesus'' birth resulting in both Redemption and Salvation, the words flow poetic in verse and rhyme to match Mother Nature''s co-ordination with man''s spiritual emotions; respectful devotion toward Faith! Family! Freedom! becomes the conclusive result of the effort. Younger children will find magic in the poetic presentation of "Christmas Tree", applaude "Santa and Frosty", delight in the stories of a loving family; older children and teens can feel free to exercise heartelt excitement as they enjoy Christmas plays, holiday stories of love, hope and charity while becoming instilled with the true meaning of the serenity of the season. Parents and seniors will experience nostalgia born of past celebrations with special family, extended relative members, friends and neighbors; reading the messages to a young audience will highlight the holiday as the pinnacle of the season for years to come. Seniors might sit back and simply enjoy the warm reflection of life worthwhile. The rhyme and prose is deliberately presented to spark the virtues deeply cherished in the moral lexicon of all Christian people. "Love" is the secret ingredient which ties all life together in what these lessons purport to be an incredible adventurous event celebration, each and every day of the year. Tradition is the recipe, the goodness of the characters in the stories and the rhyme within the poetry offer a delectible offering for every palette. View the Savior''s birth from an advantage above that rustic stable in the East, witness His innocent presence lying in the rustic manger, feel the crisp tingle of snowflakes on warm skin, fly across the frozen pond on silver skates, challenge the hills and dale on a snow sled and enjoy the pure pleasure of that long sought one horse open sleigh ride. Meet some fellow Christian people who live, not only the most awesome adventure, appreciate reverently the miracle gift of life, itself, but, those who bring Christmas'' delight to fellow members of their society in a myriad variety of humorous, honest and humble identifications. These rhymes and prose hold and offer, for the simple taking, that very demonstrative example of what being "Christian" is really all about. Come celebrate that most wonderful time of the year with us and bring family and friends along to highlight the illustrious occsion.Forgotten innocent emotions will burst forth from within, perhaps hidden away, too long, just waiting--for...What? Experience the Love of the season; hug someone who needs an embrace; touch the hand of a relative or friend who might apreciate understanding; hold a child, give of yourself, find happiness which is, and always has been, right before you; kiss your lover with deep passion. Don''t wait! Today! Right now! In reality, it''s all there is. Embrace life! Say "Merry Christmas!" with passion. Live life to the limit and, if ye dare---beyond. Careful, lest you unveil the truth: "Think outside the box"? The truth: There "ain''t" no box! Faith! Family! Freedom! Might just be all there really---is/ In one eternal instant the only mercy judgment will be...His! Merry Christmas!
