Christmas Recall Options

[Aphrodite]

Dear Linda,
Providing vivid images and communicating emotion are the stuff that poetry is made of.
At least for me "Christmas Recall" paints a vivid picture and the seedy pside of town and allows me to change my image of the dreamer stanza by stanza.
I first see a young girl crouching by the hearth, then a young women of the drurdgery class with her cld chapped hands nevertheless thankful for the minimal joys of the season, then escaping her actual surroundings she relives more pleasant thoughts of earlier Christmasses. Her mental return to reality is sad and gruesome, but hope survives. It's a rollercoaster ride for the emotions!
Cheers, Ron jgd
