CHRISTMAS 2023

=================================

these earthly disruptions cannot bide

this nova nuova Christmastide

the angels gliding in

on meteoric song

how I would the sound prolong

turning from minor to major keys

snowing and evergreen mind at ease

all in the northern skies

all in the northern skies I dreamed

processions of angels

of winter’s constellations won

of snow bright, candlelight in excelsis Deo adorations

especially caroled by little ones

Christ is to the manger come;

the rose of winter, the tripped radiances

the merry kingdom claimed.

despite of all disdain.

so buon natale, each refrain.

Christ is born!

the torn heart mended

the darkness rended
