I'm so sad after reading this Mike, our children and grandchildren are significant in our lives, and their loss is incredibly sad if we'd had never had children or indeed animals in our lives it probably wouldn't bother us, but when we do they are incredibly important and significant, so I weep with you, but you're right, life is to be lived, not be a state of mourning, beautifully written, merry Christmas, blessings Roy

Memories truly run wild on Christmas night, because the spirit of Christmas still exists. In addition to that, I loved your imagery, especially with the line "they create a ballet of light reflecting along the walls in a myriad of colors." Happy holidays!

This is a beautiful poem that you have written for those who not only celebrating Christmas but are celebrating it with a broken heart because of somebody who they lost during the year. My heart goes out to you for your loss. I wish you the very best Christmas ever. And those two feathers that you had in your hand those were real, and I think God himself placed them there. Patricia.

Goodness Mike this is a tough one. So sorry for your loss. Sometimes it is very hard to understand.

Thankfully you have your Faith to fall back on. Realizing this place is temporary helps.

Bless you.
Douglas.

This is such a stunningly beautiful piece. What a lovely tribute to the ones we have loved and lost at a time of year when family is foregrounded in all the media around us. I've suffered losses too, and Christmas can be very difficult, especially if the grief is fresh. I'm so sorry for your loss.
