Slowly we sang it
slowly
The red-robed sopranos
spread out among us
and the altos
and the basses
all among us
singing slowly
slowly
Ivory candles
tapered to halos
on our faces
silver halos
in the dark gold night
lighting the grand
brass pipes
and the worn
wooden pedals
Slowly we sang it
slowly
and the silent night
never seemed so holy

The rain has stopped, and the sun is out!
And a fun-filled 2015!
Happy New Year--all year--Helen!
