Saturday Rave: Every Star Shall Sing A Carol by Sydney Carter.

 The Story of the Nativity is a very beautiful thing even if, like me, you don't really believe it.

If you get a chance today to snatch a moment between trying to find a way to make the Brussels sprouts palatable (and drenching them in maple syrup is, frankly, an abomination) and breaking up fights between the two Aunties, then this carol by Sydney Carter will give you a glimpse of that long cool beauty.


Who can tell what other cradle?
High above the Milky Way;
Still may rock the King of Heaven,
On another Christmas day.



Joy and peace to everyone this Christmas.

Word To Use Today: sing. We've all been singing for millennia. This word was singan in Old English.
