The picks in recent weeks for Carol Rumens's Poem of the Week have been excellent. And this week's is outstanding. For those of us old enough to associate Christmas with feelings of deep melancholy, on occasion at least, Andrew Greig's Towards the End of the Feast hits the spot and how.
It made me think of the last Christmases of several people I've known and loved. Sad, of course, but a rich, rewarding sadness that enhances.
