Christmas, How I love Thee
Praise for Commercials and Everything Worth Receiving
Christmas!
Oh such joy!
No matter where you go
There's jingles on the commercials
Telling you
Buy this for him
Buy this for her
After all, commercials are never wrong
Especially when they have Christmas songs
Perhaps the holiday excites some
Surely kids, this day rules all
But as we age, we see through the veil
There's no Santa, only sales
Buy me, Give me
These transactions we all share
Give me this, in exchange I'll give you that
It's not the thought that counts
Gift cards are well worth the cost
I love you
I give you this
You love me
You give me that
But please I don't want you leaving me
If you don't like my gift
Then give me something worth receiving.

Not everyone can be trusted
When my friend and I were 12 years old, we went on a 5-day school trip to Switzerland with our class. We were introduced to the trip leaders, a group of 5 people - 1 girl and 4 boys. They all seemed nice except for one of the boys, who I'll call Nathan. I had an uneasy feeling about Nathan from the start, though my friend dismissed my concerns, saying I tend to have trust issues.

Whispering Woods Challenge Winners
Congratulations to Morgan Christy Rickards for their winning Whispering Woods story, Guardian at the Gate. Morgan has been a Vocal creator since February 2021, and this is their first time placing in Challenge — well done, starting with a win! Guardian at the Gate draws evocatively from Welsh tales of the Cantre'r Gwaelod, a lost sunken kingdom between the forest and the sea. Heledd’s dangerous adventure pulls her towards the water but her spirit is anchored in the woods: Morgan’s writing is atmospheric and exciting.
