Happy Holidays to ALL!


Poem Artwork


On these days may all slaves become masters
and let their oppressors bow down in work.

And as the clock ticks Saturnalia passes
from solstice to Sol Inviticus’ day.

So many Gods, their lives full and abundant
pared down to one, and yet we still don’t know.

Lo, Yo, Ho, Praise Saturn. His might is Just
And with Sol may fields flourish and life bloom.

The couplets really work here, and it has such a classical feel, no matter what the religion, i dont find it rife with controversy at all, and I'm Catholic.

Good wishes received gratefully. Same to the sender!
******************************************************************

It pleases me to read a poem that honors the Pen of the Poet; the language, and enriches Poetry... This is a unique bountiful beauty... A true flower from the poetic garden, and I have no bigger word than excellent to qualify this composition!

This "Saturnalia et Sigillaricia" does feasts the closing of 2008, and opens the pages of learning for 2009.

In gratitude and admiration,

What you proffer the reader here, Sara, is certainly rife with controversy. With regard to the purposeful drollness in the piece, I'll pass on the orgiastic festival with excessive drinking thankyou.
However, given the nature of the season, and despite your ethnic mentality, I am impressed, on occasion, with the unwavering cognitive content that you hold as genuine.

Foregive my curiosity, but if slaves become masters,
will they have their own slaves, who become masters,
who have their own slaves, who...

Just wondering, or am I wandering?

Well thought out. Did you know that on board ships (Navy, Coast Guard etc) it is a custom that the youngest member of the crew becomes Captain for a day on Christmas day? Perhaps that is where that origianated.

"So many Gods, their lives full and abundant
pared down to one, and yet we still don’t know." This is so true, I believe that God is One and resides within us ALL. Namaste, Carin' Spirit.
