Tin Can Serenade:
Two homes in the mountainsSnowed in for winter’s keep;A river in between them,A rope tight o’er the deep. A mother and her daughter,A father and his son,A cottage and a cabin,A story yet unspun But time did freeze a tin canDangling from that ropeA messenger from days gone by,Echoing long lost hope. Until a cold November daySaw decades fall away;Young hands inscribed a folded scrap,A missive sent to say…_________________ So begins the plucky correspondence of Timothy and Genevieve, two children about to uncover a story long-buried… one filled with love, with loss, and with hope. An enchanting Christmas story laced with joy, God’s healing hand in the broken places of life weaves through each letter passed over the river in that tin-can strung from the rusted pulley. Enter into a simpler time in this petite tale, written to be just long enough to tuck into a stolen moment as you rest your feet and quiet your heart in the bustle of a busy season.$0.00$0.99 -
