I did not know that old Shakey wrote something like that - it's a good poem and really evokes the wintriness of Christmas! I have never come across this poem before.

I'll bet you'll feel odd without your sister this year, but I cannot help but feel that those we have loved and lost are still with us in some way. Don't think me mad, but I often end up having conversations in my head with my lost ones. It's just a way of knowing they are still there. Have a lovely, peaceful Christmas.

Our family is a bit fractured this year as well...our son is in Thailand for the holiday, and my mother in law passed away in the fall. It's always a bit difficult those first holidays without someone. Enjoy your time in Scotland :) Those poems certainly fit our weather this morning :) Very appropriate.
