UK CHRISTMAS 2020 STAMPS ~ AN ACROSTIC 9 5 SONNET

ANGELA & BRIAN



 

THE MANTRA since SEPTEMBER has been *COVID 19 cant stop Christmas*  This has been exemplified by bumper sales in the SUPERMARKETS and the Mail Order Firms as we prepare optimistically for the most important Global Christian Festival of 2020 ! Boris has promised an ease-up of Lockdown and the Police have promised they will only interrupt Big Parties ! Another indication is the Issue of the 2020 Christmas Stamps  *Mary & Child* from English Stained Glass Church Windows. Christmas is *All about the BOY*  Love ANGELA BRIAN & SMOKEY 💛💛💛

    A & B, Greetings!
    That was great - thanks. As promised.
    Next year are you going to do the Seculars - or are you leaving that for an old sinner like me?
    Take care, Dave

      BRIAN HERE ~ Good OZ Evening Dave ! Pleased you enjoyed it ! I always do a TALK on the Christmas Stamps for the Seniors and the secular ones always have much of *Yuletide Interst* in them. Unfortunately with e-mails & franking ~ Stamp Collecting has become a lost art. Global Christmas Stamps are one of the few genres that still persist !

      Blessings & Peace to You & Yours
      Love Angela Brian & Smokey ! ! !

        BRIAN HERE ~ Good Monday Uncle Andy ~ Thanks for your comments ! A Friend of ours buys all the *First Day Covers* for his Daughter (A PrimaryTeacher) and they are very very expensive. the STAR TREK SET is very impressive. Angela & I like SF but always find Science Fact more interesting ! Spiritual Fact is always more convincing than Spiritual Myth - Fiction & Fantasy. However the FACTS of the INCARNATION ~ as recorded by Matthew & Luke in the Gospels ~ still ring very true today. This is why they are depicted by - Painters & Stained Glass Artists through the Centuries and on Postage Stamps in 2020 ! There is Truth in both Science & Religion ~ each individual has the free will to decide ~ AMEN !

        Blessing & Peace to You & Yours
        Love Angela Brian & Smokey 💛💛💛

          I am awaiting my stamps, they have nothing to do with christmas but are a set of stamps celebrating Star Trek - much more believable.

            never knew such stamps existed, (there is seemingly no end to ones ignorance), I learn something new with every read of your informative write's,
            thank you!

            BRIAN HERE ~ Good Afternoon Friend ~ Thanks for your kind comment ~ we do tend to write Factual Poems rather than Abstact ~ I guess its because we are both Scientists & have analytical minds. My DAD was a great Collector of Stamps so I have always taken an interest !

            Blessings & Peace to YOU & YOURS
            Love Angela Brian Smokey ! ! !
