Line One of Christina's haiku sets the stage for a scene to follow. Do we know where she will take us next? Christmas carols gives a sense a joy of that season. An audience receiving, a story traditional and enchanting being told.
Christmas connotes in its ideal form a image of family. The Nativity scenes call us to newness, birth, people around us, adoration.
The ideal of Christmas does not project for us the loneliness that so many of us must be facing in this time of celebration.
But Christina pulls us into a reality of that loneliness of Christmas, and the magic of hope; in her fragment, Lines Two and Three, which follows an astounding phrase of Line One
Well Done Christina
