What Are You Listening To Right Now?

Dar Williams-the christian and the Pagans

Amber called her uncle, said "We're up here for the holiday,
Jane and I were having Solstice, now we need a place to stay."
And her Christ-loving uncle watched his wife hang Mary on a tree,
He watched his son hang candy canes all made with red dye number three.
He told his niece, "It's Christmas Eve, I know our life is not your style,"
She said, "Christmas is like Solstice, and we miss you and its been awhile,"

So the Christians and the Pagans sat together at the table,
Finding faith and common ground the best that they were able,
And just before the meal was served, hands were held and prayers were said,
Sending hope for peace on earth to all their gods and goddesses.

The food was great, the tree plugged in, the meal had gone without a hitch,
Till Timmy turned to Amber and said, "Is it true that you're a witch?"
His mom jumped up and said, "The pies are burning," and she hit the kitchen,
And it was Jane who spoke, she said, "It's true, your cousin's not a Christian,"
"But we love trees, we love the snow, the friends we have, the world we share,
And you find magic from your God, and we find magic everywhere."

So the Christians and the Pagans sat together at the table,
Finding faith and common ground the best that they were able,
And where does magic come from? I think magic's in the learning,
'Cause now when Christians sit with Pagans only pumpkin pies are burning.

When Amber tried to do the dishes, her aunt said, "Really, no, don't bother."
Amber's uncle saw how Amber looked like Tim and like her father.
He thought about his brother, how they hadn't spoken in a year,
He thought he'd call him up and say, "It's Christmas and your daughter's here."
He thought of fathers, sons and brothers, saw his own son tug his sleeve, saying,
"Can I be a Pagan?" Dad said, "We'll discuss it when they leave."

So the Christians and the Pagans sat together at the table,
Finding faith and common ground the best that they were able,
Lighting trees in darkness, learning new ways from the old, and
Making sense of history and drawing warmth out of the cold.

Bob Segar-Love To Watch Her Strut.

[CelticRoz]

Wow! Mike! Pretty cool. I would love to do that. so I just need to sign up for ITunes and get a pair of headphones and plug them in the back of my computer, eh?

[MDF3530]

You don't need to sign up for iTunes. It's a free download.

As far as headphones go, I prefer the cheap, $15 Sony ones, but the ones I use right now aren't on the market anymore ...

Also, there might be a separate female end for headphones on your computer. It'll have a drawing of a headphone set next to it.

Here's the url for the iTunes download:

Oh thank you Mike! I would really like to do this cause when hubby is home watching his sports that can be kind of loud and I can't hear my music on Highlander radio very well. I wonder if the headphones would work for all my music in Media Player as well? Hmmm. ....that is a thought!

How about those Red Sox players?! I watched some of the game last night and was very happy to see them win!

Thanks for the download. I will do it right now!

Island of Teiscinn

Murmur of the sea in a lively exchange
On matters sacred to the Grand Ocean
Sound of the waves, harmonious to my desire to see you.
Sweet musi of my yearning for you, voice from beyond.

By wave edge on silky sand,
Your voice I hear beyond the salty years,
Saying you wish to visit my island,
Show me the isles, show me my people.
A spell draws me to reaches beyond my ken.
Welcome, voice from beyond,
The boat is ready to sail,
Open your mind,
If you wish to stay,
This place is all yours,
The Isle of Teiscinn.
