CHRISTMAS IN SPAIN:
Christmas is celebrated on Jan. 6th in Spain,
To coincide the arrival of the three wise men.
They exchange presents on this day.
I've wittnessed this myself it's wonderful I say.
On the eve before, big processions
Adorn the streets.
To the on lookers,
They throw many sweets.
To The Bitish Patriots,
They have two Christmas's in as many weeks.
It's a wonderful atmoshere I declare,
Happiness is all that people seek.
So to-day(Jan 6th)
My son will again celebrate with friends and co.
Then in a week's time,
He's off on holiday to Mexico.
HAPPY CHRISTMAS AND HOLIDAY JOHN.

Two Christmas celebrations sounds like fun! I'm sure my grandkids would like that and I wish I was still with them. But it's home again in the California rain and cold--seems a bit out of character, but that's the weather report from L.A.
ReplyDeleteI'm excited about your upcoming book release. Hope all goes well with it.
