Comment from Sandra Nelms-Ludwig
This is a good 5-7-5 entry. The message is clearly stated. The text is a good size. The visual works perfectly. However, visuals with words written on them are copyrighted and should not be used. I typically type in my search engine Free photos of ______________. In the blank I put what I am looking for. You will then find photos without the company logo stamped across them. These visuals when used are also not distractive. Good luck in the contest.

Comment from Rosemary Everson1
To celebrate love at Christmas is a wonderful thing. We celebrate because of the birth of Jesus. and we also celebrate because we love our family. Children get excited at Christmas.

Comment from Bill Schott
This 5-7-5, Christmas Romance, has the proper formatting and find the power of mistletoe to be just as potent as when grandpa and grandma, and mom and dad stood under it. Nice.

Comment from Mario PIERRE
That's a very astute way of talking about loss and feeling great about it!! It's so true, when we lose our heart to someone, it's a gain!!
Well done!!

Thank you, Mario, for expressing a theme of my poem I had not thought of.
Comment from Mark D. R.
Rod,
You posted a nice story for this contest entry in my favored poem style (-; You may know the following:
The tradition of kissing under the mistletoe started in ancient Greece, during the festival of Saturnalia and later in marriage ceremonies, because of the plant's association with fertility.
During the Roman era, enemies at war would reconcile their differences under the mistletoe, which to them represented peace.
I thought mistletoe had a religious meaning, but the clip above provides background to their kiss.

I am so pleased you like this "lost" entry, Karyn, and think it?s "sweet." I am often called Scrooge this time of year, but the Holiday Spirit inspired me.
