A Child of the Snows
There is heard a hymn when the panes are dim,
And never before or again,
When the nights are strong with a darkness long,
And the dark is alive with rain.
Never we know but in sleet and in snow,
The place where the great fires are,
That the midst of the earth is a raging mirth
And the heart of the earth a star.
And at night we win to the ancient inn
Where the child in the frost is furled,
We follow the feet where all souls meet
At the inn at the end of the world.
The gods lie dead where the leaves lie red,
For the flame of the sun is flown,
The gods lie cold where the leaves lie gold,
And a Child comes forth alone.
— G. K. Chesterton

To all the publishers, editors, supporters and contributors of RedState. Especially for taking on the good fight to preserve, protect, and defend the rich religious and cultural traditions of this great nation. The Greetings pic and the poem from Chesterton is super!

May God's blessing be upon you and your families. I hope all your prayers are heard and his love lives forever in your hearts.
By the way, this artwork makes me miss the RS salad days when AE would post these paintings and history regularly.

BTW, I would look forward to it. I mean, who else could tell us why "The Infant Bacchus" might be an appropriate painting for the New Year?
