T'was the week before Christmas and all through the house,
a great mess was stirring and and chaos did rouse.
Guests were arriving, great presents and snow,
In the mail, a gift, from Magic Love Crow!
A painting so lovely, a pointsettia crow in the frost,
Carefully I placed it so as not to get lost.
Her Christmas card hung on the stairs with such care,
And her painting was placed...only I knew where!
The holidays too crazy to post in my blog,
I would wait until later when my brain cleared of fog
And soon, it is quiet, I was ready to post,
I look for the crow painting, and oh no, it's lost!
I searched in the attic, the basement, the tree...
Panic set in, "My painting," cries me!
It's time to put all the decorations away,
I hope still to find it, I hope it's today!
With all but the last decorations remaining,
my hope of finding the painting is waning.
Just the garland atop of the mantel remains,
my heart skips a little, I feel in my veins
I lift the garland and what do I see,
but Stacy Magic Love Crow's painting looking at me!
Thank you so much, Stacy! I absolutely love it! Please click on the links above and have a look at Stacy's blog. You won't meet a nicer, more generous or kind-hearted person on the web :) And she's talented, too!
