The Last Shall Be The First Hoorah

The last shall be the first hoorah
Celebrating Epiphany outside in the cold
Fahrenheit plus 21 equals Celsius minus six
Jamón Iberico y queso Manchego y barras de pan
Cocido Madrileño and Spanish Chocolate
Bonfire roared under stars, planets, clouds
The last celebration of holiday cheer
The first hoorah in the new year

  1. Sounds great Timothy. We have “Drie koningen” (three kings) on the 6th of january. Children go from door to door and sing “Drie koningen songs” an receive soms sweets or money. The idea is that the 3 kings went around the world to tell about the birth of Jesus.

  2. Orion behind the rising smoke from the bonfire makes a beautiful image. Tim. Your sky captures are as beautiful as always.

    The snow report up here has been pushed off to next weekend. A little clearing during the night, and I was able to see the waning crescent moon amid the clouds this morning.

    • Cocido Madrileño has pork, carrots, garbanzo beans, potatoes and onions. You could make it without the pork and it would still be good. Thanks, Resa.
