And now I must go off to sing and read and serve, and so I wish you a wonderful Christmas Eve and Day, however you spend the time.
Seek Giacometti’s “The Palace at 4 a.m.” Go back two hours. See towers and curtain walls of matchsticks, marble, marbles, light, cloud at stasis. Walk in. The beggar queen is dreaming on her throne of words…You have arrived at the web home of Marly Youmans, maker of novels, poetry collections, and stories, as well as the occasional fantasy for younger readers.
Alas, I must once again remind large numbers of Chinese salesmen and other worldwide peddlers that if they fall into the Gulf of Spam, they will be eaten by roaming Balrogs. The rest of you, lovers of grace, poetry, and horses (nod to Yeats--you do not have to be fond of horses), feel free to leave fascinating missives and curious arguments.
Top o' the list again, of course!
ReplyDeleteHappy Christmas to you and your family, Marly!
And the same to you, Marja-Leena! So glad we became e-friends...
ReplyDeleteMerry Christmas! Now, I'm "off the air" for the day. May you have a wonderful, blessed family day.
