White Christmas in Ohio

Cherry and I flew into CVG in Northern Kentucky on December 19th on an Embraer RJ145. It is easier to see outside the windows of the smaller planes. As we descended toward the cloud deck we saw the full moon almost like a watermark against the still blue sky. We descended into the clouds and then into the white and gray world below. Only the main roads were free of snow. The country and building roof tops were covered with a foot of snow from Thursday's storms.


Cherry had carefully packed her cases of presents with love and care,
For she was playing Santa in the cold night air.
Her Santa cookies were baked and iced in red and white,
And she would see her son tonight.


He should know that a mother's love,
Naughty or nice is coming from above.
Charlie will have his Christmas,
With a mother's hug and tenderness.
