it is the courage to continue that counts.”

Cathedral for Daily Photo

“Maimed but still magnificent…
Europe’s mightiest medieval cathedral”
R. W. Apple, Jr.

Cathedral for Daily Photo

What a piece of art!
Done by someone very smart
Or possibly straight from the heart

The ‘ohs’ and ‘ahs’ over the chart
Can be heard from here to St Barts
Someone tried the work bogart
But the artist said, “never could I part”

So, luckily for our viewing pleasure
We can now admire this permanent treasure
In our place of worship in our leisure

Sankta Lucia

Posted in Celebration National Day

“Night walks with a heavy step
Round yard and hearth,
As the sun departs from earth,
Shadows are brooding.
There in our dark house,
Walking with lit candles,
Santa Lucia, Santa Lucia”

lucia-1899

Sankta Lucia

The bearer of light
For the future to shine bright
With all her might
Like the shining white knight
Her sword will smite
All the anger and spite
The world to rewrite
Without war or fight
Sankta Lucia
