"On the morning of his nativity"

Milton's writes,
"On the morning of his nativity"
of a visit to the Christ child,
on the morning of his birth,
and the gift, from the muze.

Nephi writes his small plates,
after reviewing his larger plates,
of the struggle with his brothers,
and the loss, of family,
unity.

I now review 8 years of blogs,
of the poetry, and essay's,
and church talks.

I need to share,
what I fear most,
the lessons I have learned,
and the trials I have endured.

That I like Nephi and Milton,
may share my testimony,
of the risen Lord.

on being a Germain prince

He was born a Germain prince.

He, his father, and grandfather,
had ruled Great Britain
as English Monarchs,
and Germain Princes.

Part of the constitutional compromise,
in the English Revolution.

As a Constitutional Monarch,
he may reign, but not rule.

It was a representative government,
if not a democratic one, 
a rare thing in the world
of his day.

He stood, in a place,
between his English Subjects,
and the American Colonists.

He had been tutored and trained,
that as a Constitutional Monarch
he. must not be a tyrant.

If in opposition to his parliament,
he sided with the American Colonists,
his son and grandsons,
could then become tyrants

How then to solve, this disagreement
between his subjects,
was his quandary.

George III was the English King during the American Revolution. As a Germain Prince, he still ruled his Germain lands, Duke of Brunswick-Lüneburg, and prince-elector of Hanover.






On Momma and the Nanny

Where are Momma and Nanny today,
He "aks".

For 18 years they shared a bedroom,
then they shared a family.

How does one describe Momma,
and the Nanny.

There is pizza,
and roller skating, 
Bear Lake and Donnatta Hot Springs.

Shared family loss,
at an early age. 

The death of,
Nada, Ken, Leo, Fred, and David,
sister, sister's husband, father, brother, nephew.

Fertility, Infertility,
Nanny really wanted babies,
Momma feared the birth,
of too many;.

Family vacations,,
Daddy on one side of the bed,
Nanny on the other and Momma,
in the middle.

After the death of Nanny's husband,
on vacation together, in Fort Bridger,
the man accused Daddy, 
of being a polygamist.

Country Music, dancing, baking bread,
laughter and tears.

Shared intimacy need not imply,
un-celibacy,.

Nanny never desired Momma's husband,
only her babies.

So a life they did share,
and the babies too. 

Now together they share Eternity.

Momma, the Nanny,
and now Nanny's Babies.
