chrismus greetings December 22, 2011 |

Yes "chrismus"! A warm and friendly, old-time Jamaican, chrismus greeting to you! Whether or not you celebrate Christmas I am sure, like I, you do love the festivities, the family togetherness and the shopping - especially the ladies, right? And for us in Jamaica; the sharing, the church and community concerts, the colours & lights, the family and friend excursions, the fruit cake and sorrel, and just the cool 'christmas vibe'. Christmas is indeed a special time for all of us, and so, I am pausing to wish you and yours a splendid Christmas my friend; even if you won't be in Jamaica :-) Have a safe and 'super-duper' one my friend! Oh wait....just before you go, here' a well-loved Jamaican poem, "chrismus dung a yard". It provides a really good idea (a reminder to the rest of us) of what the real Jamaican Christmas is really about - written in Jamaican creole! I hope it brings Jamaica to you :-) Here is it... Please share with your Jamaican family and friends as well. and remember, have a BLAST Christmas my friend!
Talk to you soon. Regards, |
