Comment from Anne Johnston
Thank you, Roy, for sharing this great story in a well-written poem. Your mother must have spent hours on this. I am a knitter and I know that these small items take more patience than a bigger project. I am glad your daughter has it and cherishes it. So much love went into this.

This is a beautifully and creatively written poem, expressing the heartfelt true meaning of Christmas. To remind your daughter of her, even after her death, your mum left a true legacy of love and a treasure to provide holiday joy for years to come. This is a beautiful poem and beautiful story. I wish you joyful holidays and new year filled with love, peace, prosperity, and health.

I love your mother's knitted nativity set. It's beautiful. What a wonderful gift. I just wrote a haibun about my personal memories of my parent's nativity set.
Excellent post with perfect rhyme and meter. Well done!

Comment from Judy Lawless
This is a beautiful Christmas story, Roy, told is this poem. When I read your explanation I almost cried. What a big undertaking that was for your mother, and to think it has meant so much to your daughter that she still brings it out each year. Blessings.

Comment from Eternal Muse
That is a beautiful poem of love, devotion, filled with wonderful Christmas imagery and visuals. It was a true gift to love to give this knitted nativity scene to her beloved children. It was touching how Rebecca preserves the memory of your mother by handling it with such reverence.
I appreciate the scriptural references too.
Happy holidays, it was wonderful poetry.

Comment from judiverse
Such a beautiful story in your poem. The nativity scene would be a wonderful thing to hand down from generation to generation. It will be a reminder of Christ's birth and the work and skill your mother put into making it. I've never tried knitting and crocheting, but my mother did so I know the effort it takes. This is a lovely story for Christmas time. Excellent rhyme and flow. judi

I am positive Rebecca will always cherish this labor of love her grandmother made for her. I am also sure Rebecca will pass it onto one of her children. Thank you for sharing this with us.

Comment from Terry Broxson
An excellent poem full on deep meaning. It also has a wonderful reflection on your mother, and when I read your note, it even made more sense. I have enjoyed your work and never made a suggestion. But (dang it there is always a but) I don't like the word smote. Maybe it's just me, think about it. Good job.

That was an amazing gift and a beautiful story behind it. I have a treasured nativity scene as well that I've had for years. It's to the receivers credit that she's taken care of it so well. Thanks for sharing. :)
