Good Morning friends of Monday WRites. What's your Monday like so far? The photo accompanying this post is really an online jigsaw puzzle of the old church building where i worship here in St James Trinidad. The church was closed in 2014 for renovations and reopened anew in October 2019. So it doesn't look anything like the photo now.
Closed again due to covid19 pandemic lockdown closing of all churches schools etc. This weekend all churches were reopened again here in T&T, with the easing of lockdown in phases.
You've heard about the Monday Blues well this is Monday WRites (musing on the definition here of rite, as any customary observance or
eg the rite of afternoon tea). Welcome to Monday WRites #250: A Happy Monday to all ❧✿❧

HE DRUMMED
A gift saying all i have,
from a heart pure and innocent,
to match a coming into this life
of strive and sin.
A rthymn so great in its giving,
sounds from a little boy,
who drummed to a baby,
majestic in a manger.

    Wonderful allusion, Gillena. :) God doesn't ask for much, as long as we give Him what we can, like that drummer boy.

    Very nice! Glad to hear your church has reopened. Ours has also, but we still have not ventured out into a big group.
    Love your poem. I think I have sung about this poem at Christmas!

    Good idea to introduce a jigsaw puzzle on Mosaic Monday as it is a mosaic art. Nice to know your town seems to be opening up little by little including the renovated church.

    Good morning... It's time for walking through Bloggerland.

    Visiting each other on Happy MosaicMonday.

    The mosaic is a funny game, I will try. And I enjoyed your poem - I would like to translate.

    Stay healthy and well.
