Do you want me to JUDGE it as a piece of poetry or as a piece of didactism?
Correct your typo,add 'of' from where it's missing and get yourself a cup of coffee.

"Are they just an anchor
To keep us moored in our sorrow?!"
PD James is a writer and woman I greatly respect and admire.I think she has answered to your question.
"Man is diminished if he lives without knowledge of his past;without hope of a future he becomes a beast". Or a Corpse,I would add...

The song
BRIAN & ANGELA said:
VERY INTERESTING ! Music does trigger off thoughts in our minds and for older people the music of the 40's (Crosby) 50's (Sinatra) 60's (Elvis) etc. I like this music but I was born in the 80's so it does not resonate with me ! Hymns of course still have their ancient power and "Abide with Me" resonates (or it should do) with everyone everywhere. Thanks for sharing ~ BRIAN

Mayhem of Christmas
BRIAN & ANGELA said:
GREAT POEM ~ DANIEL ! We always welcome a taste of CHRISTMAS. Your final stanza suggests we miss the real meaning of Christmas. I don't know if you are familiar with John Betjeman's awesome poem CHRISTMAS ? The final stanzas always bring tears to my eyes !
And is it true ? And is it true ? # The most tremendous tale of all # Seen in a stained glass window's hue # A Baby in an ox's stall ? # The Maker of the stars and sea # Become a Child on earth for me ?
No love that in a family dwells # No carolling in the frosty air # Not all the steeple shaking bells # Can with this single Truth compare # That God was Man in Palestine # And lives today in Bread and Wine !
Your Friend BRIAN

Thanks for sharing DANIEL ~ nice structure (quatrains) and rhyme pattern (xaxa xbxb etc) perfect structure and perfect subject. Great (as DEE says) to recite (I don't think she expected you to sing it !). Winter mornings in the UK are always special and their beauty and promise always gets me out of my bed and ready for the day ! Yours BRIAN
