not so silent night
a Christmas candle-lit dinner, everybody who's anybody in their being-world is there, somewhere; some are at the table, others are even on it; there are those who prefer to remain in their tree-home and several butterflies, moths and the grasshopper elected to keep apart so as not to be mistaken for food.....the most moveable critters are indeed moving about, keeping all entertained

Wishing you all a peaceful Christmas ... a twelve days of it
if the critters are willing.
probably some would say ok --
others might say -you have got to be kidding.

best wishes to all-
& of course--to all a goodnight.
sweet dreams.
