"Poetry is what gets lost in translation" ~ Robert Frost

I've always felt that a good poem or song lyric is like a good picture. If it doesn't make you "feel" something, the author didn't do their best work. Let's share some favorite poems or songs that really had an impact on you...Capt Jack.

Charles Dickens

A Ghost Story of Christmas
PREFACE
I HAVE endeavoured in this Ghostly little book, to raise the Ghost of an Idea, which shall not put my readers out of humour with themselves, with each other, with the season, or with me. May it haunt their houses pleasantly, and no one wish to lay it.
Their faithful Friend and Servant, C. D.

December, 1843.


Captain Jack-I love Charles Dickens and while "Tale of Two Cities" is clearly my favorite, it still amazes me that his stories are just as relevant today as they were over 150 years ago. A truly amazing writer. What is your favorite Dicken's novel?

Melancholy

"The water of the fountain ran, the swift river ran, the day ran into evening, so much life in the city ran into death according to rule, time and tide waited for no man, the rats were sleeping close together in their dark holes again, the Fancy Ball was lighted up at supper, all things ran their course." ~Charles Dickens-A Tale Of Two Cities. However, it could also be NYC today at Christmas. It just amazes me some times that we can only be nice to each other at one time a year, and even that seems to be a stretch these days. Sad.
