Comment from Mary Vigasin
I enjoyed this upbeat and joyous poem that give your readers all the images for the most festive time of the year.
Truthfully, I do not understand a rictameter or would not recognize one if I fell over it. However, I do recognize joyous, happy and shining writing when I see it.
Merry Christmas

This is a very festive, great to the eyes and to the soul posting for the Christmas season. The line I like the best is the one about the tree tops sprinkling. It sends a great visual image.

Very good. This is a difficult form to use and you did it with style and gave all of us a very nice Christmas gift on top of it. Solid holiday symbolism with beautiful art work. Great job, wishing you continued success.

You introduced me to a new form with this one. The picture caught my eye right away, and some of the descriptions made my taste buds tingle. It certainly put me in a festive mood.

Dear JLR, I think you speak for every one of us when it comes to wishing each other a very special Christmas this year. That you chose to do it with a rictameter
shaped like a Christmas tree and an illustration filled with all the glitter and snow, Makes us most happy that you are part of our FanStory family.

I checked, you got your word count perfect for your rictameter challenge. You can't have a decent Christmas poem without sweets in it either so good job!

And I return your greetings with extra sparkles!
A lovely Christmas poem and the Rictameter format suits, echoing perhaps a bauble on the tree.
Your poem is full of joy and positive energy which we can all use right now.
