Impressive poem. I will read more of Jane Kenyon's work.

This is my first acquaintance with Jane Kenyon. I am impressed with her handling of children's memories and the fresh way she presents them.

Jane Kenyon's work, always a pleasure and treasure to behold.

With something more than caution I handle them, and the lights, with their tin star-shaped reflectors, brought along from house to house, their pasteboard toy suitcases increasingly flimsy.

Feeling depraved with the muse of life. Nice work.

'By suppertime all that remains is the scent of balsam fir. If it's darkness we're having, let it be extravagant.' is so nice. Liked it.
