We-Three-Kings

Greetings everyone! ♥

These I made for my blog headers, depicting the three kings who followed the Star to Bethlehem, in search of to look upon Baby Jesus, the Reason we celebrate the day, the season, of 'Christ'mas. Perhaps, next year I'll make a full desktop size. Merry Christmas! ♥

Cardinal-Christmas

Greetings everyone! ♥

I love cardinals and they are especially pretty against the winter's snow and brighten the dreariness of winter. They are a symbol of warmth and faith, as well as the blood Jesus shed for us on the Cross. The word, 'cardinal', means of greatest importance and Christmas surely is! Merry Christmas! ♥

Christmas-Morning

Greetings everyone! ♥

Of all my childhood memories, my Christmas ones rank at the top. My Mom made Christmases simply magical and without a chance of being forgotten. May your Christmas be joyful and 'magical'. Merry Christmas! ♥

"When we give the Gift of Love, we give the very best,

And the joy we bring to others, the same with, we are blessed."

~ Quotes by Artsieladie

Spring

Greetings everyone! ♥

We think of Spring and all the wonders of,
God's Masterpiece of Life with His profound Love.
What else could be greater than what Spring displays
That could humble us more, give God all the praise?
God so Loves us all He gave His only Begotten Son
For our lives to be Eternal, each and every one!

We think we know so much about Love and sacrifice; 
About the meaning of forgiveness and of life, the price,
But in reality we know nothing and realise even less
The magnitude of God's Greatness, only He does possess.

By Artsieladie/Sharon Donnelly ♥

Spring has come; Spring is here,
‘Tis the season, the time of year,
When all across the northern Earth
There’s life renewed, as well new birth.
No season can compare nor can one bring
The splendor of life, like the time of Spring.

Though winter tries to hang around
To keep so cold the frozen ground
For its crystal art and flakes of white,
To be preserved, its wondrous sight,
Spring has sprung in sheer defiance,
Since with life, Spring has alliance.

Mother Nature has rested long,
Quiet’s been the robin’s song
During winter’s hush of crystal down
Draped over life’s dormant brown.
But with nature’s stirring, waking yawning,
Winter fades into Spring’s new dawning.

The Earth is changing, slowly warming,
Like a metamorphosis transforming,
As earth’s frozen cocoon melts away,
For Spring to colour the winter's grey;
Like a canvas just brown and white
In transformation to colours bright.

A brand new world is upon the scene,
Winter’s whitewash now budding green,
As Spring unfolds, the curtain draws
On a frozen wonder as winter thaws
Under the sun's rays. shining stronger
Through daylight hours lingering longer.

Melted, crystal clouds spill their overflow
Onto the waiting, waking Earth just below,
Creating an atmosphere of enchanted mist
That when the sun's warmer rays've kissed,
Spectrums of colours over the Earth, high,
Arc as rainbows in splendor across the sky.

Spring's cleansing rains prepare expecting Earth,
Making it fresh and clean for all coming new birth.
With the dormant stage of winter lost to the past,
A new stage of life's arrived for many months to last.
Everywhere, life is springing up around,
Evolving is a new wonder, one so profound.

The meadows turn a plush and velvet green,
With rainbow dipped flowers added to the scene,
Drawing in the busy bees, offering nectar, sweet,
To make their honey from, for their young to eat.
The forest is a bustling with creatures on its floor
To welcome family newborns, in preparation for.

High among the trees, many birds by the pair
Are building nests anew as their songs fill the air.
All the sleeping trees have awakened too;
Are busy growing foliage, all fresh and new
And the little seedlings all want to try,
Like their parent trees, to reach and touch the sky.

Winter is a wonderland in its own right
With nature in its slumber all dressed in white,
But the wonderland of Spring is one profound,
As nature is awakened with new life all around.
Spring exhibits the greatest show on Earth,
The true essence of life, the miracle of birth.

Thee Master of Creation with His Master Hand,
With His Touch Divine, all across the land;
Thee Master Artist with His Magic Strokes,
With His rainbow palette, new life He invokes
Through His Breath of Life and by His Divine Love
Paints earth in 'living' colour, there is no equal of.

But Spring in all its splendor with miracles abounding,
God's Masterpiece of Life, immeasurably astounding,
Can't compare to God's Love, the Sacrifice He made,
Offered for us His only Son to suffer and be slayed
For our souls to be cleansed of sin by the Blood of His Son,
That we would have Eternal Life, each and every one.

Gift-Of-Love

Greetings everyone! ♥

My Christmas artwork for my desktop this year, based around my original "snow person" (Why do we call them snow'men'? Why not 'snowwoman' and 'snowman'?). ..And from my original candy cane image, which I derived from scanning an actual candy cane. Put altogether to spell, "L-O-V-E", our greatest Gift. ♥

"Of all our gifts, Love is the best, To give from our heart without request."
~ Quotes by Artsieladie

Blessed-Christmas

Greetings everyone! ♥

I Love the Nativity Scene....

*laughing* I needed to change the battery in my wireless mouse and in the process I must have hit "publish". So now I'm resuming...

This work had its roots with taking some pictures of a little Nativity Scene I have and I bring out and display every Christmas. It plays Christmas Carols as well. Although very inexpensive, to me the miracle of all miracles it represents is what's priceless.

So, I took some photos (which I entered in an Elftown contest) and then in 2014 I decided to create a digital work of a Nativity Scene. I worked a couple months on it in 2014 but I still needed much more time. In 2015 I had no computer because its harddrive was destroyed on October 4th, 2015. In 2016 I resumed my working on this with another couple of months, but I was able to finish it by Christmas. ..And here you see the finished work. ♥

Spirit-Of-Giving

Hello all, from Artsieladie! ♥

Why is it we are more kind, more caring, more giving, and more generous all around at Christmastime? If we can be more kind, caring, and giving for one day of the year, why can't we all year spread good cheer? We would certainly have a much better world for everyone. ♥ ♥

With words ringing true, are surreal,
There's such a need for an appeal.
If we can care on just one day,
Why can't we care then every day?

When we're moved within our heart,
We must allow our voices to depart,
And make a sound to resonate
Awaken the world to help the fate
Of those forgotten, cast aside,
To make a difference and worldwide,
For there are those who cannot speak,
And so the strong must help the weak.

There is a need so immense,
Caring must become as intense,
Not by one or just a few
And not on just a day or two,
But every day, a united force,
Every ONE on just one course
To lift others who are in need,
True humanity, THIS is indeed!
We must help others without request,
This is humanity at its best!

Inside us all there is a voice,
Inside us all there is a choice,
To not just take but also give,
So that others too may live
Not plagued with hunger, in despair,
But too, can live with joy to spare.
Every human deserves the chance,
To have a better circumstance.

When we, our hearts open wide,
Allowing Love to be our guide,
We then become well aware,
Blessings given are meant to share,
So that others may too rejoice,
With a gleeful heart and happy voice.

If we can care on just one day,
Why can't we care then every day?

 "Merry Christmas!"
