You leave the image of the scene open for the reader to project their experiences. This is a strong sensory poem. Just about every sense is being affected or impacted. Well done.

K thanks so much, I am aware that our polar opposite seasons are counterpoints in many of these posts.

This is a lovely and well-executed entry for your club. I love the picture. It makes me homesick for my childhood years. I enjoyed reading your writing and hope to read more soon.

Thank you for this validation.
Comment from jake cosmos aller
loved this line
December's full moon glows brightly on the snow
casting long shadows of us; and the two deer
pay close attention to us and our cargo
treading along the snow laden trail, so clear.

Comment from Pearl Edwards
This is a lovely story interpretation of this artwork for the picture this club, JLR. I could almost smell Ma's apple strudel. Your words created a very visual scene. Lovely read, cheers

This a wonderful Christmas poem and I want some apple strudel, sounds so inviting and delicious. Your words create a vivid scene, one that brings forth a feeling happiness as the tree is brought home and the deer look on. Excellent poetic form and use of words.

Comment from Jasmine Girl
I enjoy your rhyming poem for this club. It's about warm home life, hearty meals and pie. It's also about the joy of getting a Christmas tree and expecting the incoming celebration. The chimney is working and Santa is coming.
Well done.

Comment from lyenochka
You covered everything in the picture in your well-rhymed quatrains. And you even ended with a heart of gratefulness so rare these days. I wonder how many kids today would be grateful just for a tree and apple strudel.
Hope you and yours will be especially blessed this Christmas, Jim!

Comment from Joanne Gill-Maddick
This is a beautifully written poem. Describing the given scene quite nicely.
A tug of excitement grasps my bounding heart
as Pa leads us to our home, well lit, and warm.
I drag the fresh cut Yule tree, doing my part
under the clear sky there will be no snowstorm. Very well done ð???
