Superb piece of Xmas cheer that makes the reader thirsty for more. A clever write that brings images I would love to see in an old Twilight Zone or Night Gallery episode. Your work is always exceptional.

Powerfully penned, Thomas. Excellent Xmas write my friend. I pictured the Santa as Billy Bob Thornton. Too much Bad Santa I guess. Appreciate you.

There’s a quality to your pieces that feels very much like a storyteller who shares bits of life as he passes. You take us there, without frills, and deposit us in the scene. Always a treasure to read your words

Thank you, so much.

Pretty cool, Daniel. I like the visions that it creates easily for the reader. With an artistic flair of course.

The opening lines set a fragile, haunting mood that carries through the poem beautifully.

Powerfully penned, Brenda. Incredible write my friend. Appreciate you.

I love the warning you give in this. Giving them perfect opportunity to understand what will happen.

hello beautiful Honoria thank you graciously I kind of felt uncomfortable with this one I don’t know why… I’m happy it spoke to you ❤️

Powerfully penned, Keith. Incredible write my friend. Appreciate you.

This is really impressive dear Keith! We don’t know what the thereafter will bring. I think it is most important to listen to this little inner voice telling us what’s wrong or right. Therefore I try to speak and act in order to be helpful to others. I feel that this is the right thing to do..

This is stark and unapologetic. The poem commits fully to its worldview, and that honesty gives it weight.
