...Let there be Peace on Earth...


...in our little white cottage...
...a sweet forest of tiny white bottle brush trees...
...sits in a vintage tarnished silver vessel...
...last year most of them were green...
...until they were bleached and decorated with little pearls...
...recently they became the subject of some photoplay...

...so Merry Christmas...
...from our Home to Yours...
...Wishing Peace to All...



"Let there be peace on earth
And let it begin with me.
Let there be peace on earth
The peace that was meant to be.
With God as our father
Brothers all are we.
Let me walk with my brother
In perfect harmony.

Let peace begin with me
Let this be the moment now.
With every step I take
Let this be my solemn vow.
To take each moment 
And live each moment 
With peace eternally.
Let ther be peace on earth,
And let it begin with me."

words to the song 
by Jill Jackson Miller and Sy Miller 
written in 1955
