Another Cough-vid Christmas

BY JAMES DAVIS Artist/Vendor

It’s sad to say, much harder to hear But it looks like another COVID Christmas this year Too many sick and God bless the dead I bet old Dr. Fauci is scratching his head So many variants and strains enough to make the CDC go insane So come on Pfizer and Cupid, Comet and Johnson Moderna and Blitzen and Swanson and Swanson? So once again we hang the masks with care Waiting for the next variant scare I’m not chicken, I’ll play a rooster But I hate needles! No more boosters!!!!

Happy holidays to all my customers..thank you and mask up.

The season of Christmas

BY EVELYN NNAM Artist/Vendor

Christmas, Christmas, what a wonderful time To celebrate the season of giving A season of togetherness A season of laughter A season of love A season of warmth A season of embrace A season of food A season of joy A season of Christmas! Christmas brings fun times, Wonderful memories And sweet smiles on faces Christmas is the cool and chilly season Where snow falls with snowmen and Snow angels all around you With snapping pictures of family and friends Drinking hot cocoa by a warm fire Eating sweets filled with love And most importantly, giving to those who need it the most Christmas is that time when we wrap up the presents Do our good deeds, and bring the year to an end We want to thank Christmas, for keeping us for another year Where we get to experience what it’s all about Christmas is the season of JESUS Jesus who saves, Jesus who loves, Jesus who uplifts, Jesus who reigns May all our hearts be filled with Jesus May we all be filled with love May we all experience Christmas for what the season truly is.

Joy

BY JACKIE TURNER Artist/Vendor

I take pleasure in knowing that nothing lasts forever. That God will always stand by you. That people are more good than bad. You can find joy and beauty in everything if you try. Life is meant to be enjoyed. Laughter is a good feeling. The sunshine feels good. Snow is pretty to look at. All animals are God’s creations -- humans also. It’s easier to feel good than to be mad.

I know you can add to this list of enjoyable things. Think about it.

COVID-19

BY CARLOS CAROLINA Artist/Vendor

Go Pfizer, go Pfizer!

I am very glad the Pfizer vaccine was granted full approval by the U.S. Food and Drug Administration. I’m very glad because the Pfizer vaccine was the vaccine that I received.

I’m still alive!

I was kind of upset when I first found out that I received the shot with only emergency approval of the vaccine, not full approval from the FDA.

In life, we live and we learn and every day that we live, we learn. I think this is great motivation for unvaccinated people to get vaccinated.

It’s now or never! Get the shot. Be wise.

Zena

BY ANTHONY PRATT, a.k.a. “PRAYED UP” Artist/Vendor

I am telling a story about a woman named Zena. Zena is the best facilitator or counselor there is. Zena always concerns herself with others. She goes out of her way to make sure her clients are safe and have food to eat, and clothes to wear. She gives very good positive advice to all of her clients and others that she’s just met.

We all love Zena because God has blessed her with a special gift for caring and loving people. She helps us to find mental health services and other support groups, so we can better our lives.

The “Fly Stick” prototype is ready!

I was home and began welding my Fly Stick invention when the thin sheet metal plates could not take the heat. They all burned! So I rebuilt her back with screws and this time used Bondo to hold the plates in place. So this is a prototype only now for marketing. I’ve managed to poor-man’s copyright the idea, which helps. But I need help getting my invention in front of investors.

Listen to the song

BY: KYM PARKER // Artist/Vendor

When we hear the song, it can take us to many places. It can take us back to things that we lost. It brings us closer to God. Have you ever heard an angel sing? It is God’s only voice that shows her that we are truly loved

Love

BY DON GARDNER Artist/Vendor

Love is so unconditional. Is it the Holy Spirit, In the form of a dove. Or is it love from above?

Love covers the multitude of sins. Love never hates. Nor does love ever die.

Love fulfills every need no matter the breed. It’s God’s true specialty in reality: Nurturing growth to the very smallest element, Promised to mend the spirit.

One feels so much better From just four letters, Encouraging the forgotten or the misled.

So if love is knocking at your door, Answer.

Nowhere to be found

BY AYUB ABDUL Artist/Vendor

Silence takes over as I look here, I look there, I look everywhere I want to hear on the telephone call but yet the phone doesn’t ring. Things are not just right. What could it be? I can’t see where my love can be. She told me that she was right for me, But I haven’t heard anything. Is she all right, or can she be OK? When I see another day come past. I look around but nowhere to be found. Up and down, oh where can you be? This is like a misery that’s happening to me and I don’t know where you can be. I don’t know where she go, My love, where art thou?
