The Tale of La Befana

Article by Mallory101 posted 1 month ago

5.0	by 3 fans

Though similar to Russia's Baboushka, Italy's La Befana is a gift bringer with a style all her own. This is her sad and poignant story...

To those who would see her from the road she appeared to be nothing more than a lonely old woman who lived alone. But the lines on her old face were drawn from years of tragedy. The lines told the story of losing her husband and infant child to a sweeping disease, leaving her a widow and a childless mother.

Inded she did live alone as an old woman. She had very little. But what she did have was precious to her. She kept these small treasures locked up in a chest -- a small doll her that once belonged to her beloved child and a scrap of wool from her wedding dress, worn long ago when she married the man she loved.

In her loneliness she contemplated love, heaven and the wonders of nature. At night she would sit alone on her porch and look at the stars. As she thought these things her mind centered on a rumor of a special star, a star she often looked for. The star signaled the birth of a new king -- a king of kings, a king of hearts.

Anything is Possible...on Christmas Night

5.0	by 2 fans

Just a little Christmas story I was inspired to write. I started it the Sunday prior to Thanksgiving and just now managed to finish it. I thought that I would share it with my fellow FanPoppers to see what you all thought. It still needs a little work (in my opinion), but I thought it was good enough to post and get responses on.

ANYTHING IS POSSIBLE...ON CHRISTMAS NIGHT

The snow fell lightly from the sky. It was the perfect snow to compliment the eve of Christmas -- not too heavy, not too light. Just...perfect. The sun had set only an hour before, and the only lights that now penetrated the darkness came from the Christmas lights on display and the warm, cheery glow from multiple windows in the houses along the small cul-de-sac. The air held a certain chill to it, but many a person had given thanks that they were spared the need for traveling outdoors that night.
A small gust of wind descended from the heavens and blew its way along the intersecting street. It started out as any other gust of wind, but when it reached the cul-de-sac it seemed to take on a life of its own....

O Christmas Tree

O Christmas tree, O Christmas tree!
How are thy leaves so verdant!
O Christmas tree, O Christmas tree,
How are thy leaves so verdant!

Not only in the summertime,
But even in winter is thy prime.
O Christmas tree, O Christmas tree,
How are thy leaves so verdant!

O Christmas tree, O Christmas tree,
Much pleasure doth thou bring me!
O Christmas tree, O Christmas tree,
Much pleasure doth thou bring me!

For every year the Christmas tree,
Brings to us all both joy and glee.
O Christmas tree, O Christmas tree,
Much pleasure doth thou bring me!

O Christmas tree, O Christmas tree,
Thy candles shine out brightly!
O Christmas tree, O Christmas tree,
Thy candles shine out brightly!

Each bough doth hold its tiny light,
That makes each toy to sparkle bright.
O Christmas tree, O Christmas tree,
Thy candles shine out brightly!
