This is my very favorite Christmas song of all, on my favorite of all Neil Young albums (grossly maligned and neglected, though it is), with which I want to wish you all a great holiday season and a fine, creative new year.
And, because I can't resist, here is my second favorite Christmas song of all :
Not too shabby for a lapsed agnostic, eh?
at the hermit's hut, too--
an upturned face awaits
the stars
translated by David G. Lanoue
best,
Don

I do like that. Don't know why it doesn't come to mind when I think of Christmas songs.
I love that song! and this particular Issa, as well. Thanks be, for Issa's Untidy Hut. Merry Yuletide, love, and peace, Don, from Donna
Charles, not traditional but spot-on! Glad you liked it.
Donna:
So glad you liked the Issa, as well as the Neil Young. It's amazing how many solid unknown tunes he's written besides the famous ones.

Dear Don, Something about that light shining down the hall... everyone's got a different name for it....
Merry Christmas... Merrill
My Dad was about as agnostic as you can get. Taught me a lot!
