The struggles of an emerging writer to get published. What exactly is it that I'm emerging from? Some kind of primeval literary goo?

Christmas on a stick .love it!
That's gorgeous
Very sweet! Do we ever get over wishing for a Santa?
Lovely Poem - captures the magic
I love the tough wistfulness, and the changes in perspective, from huge vistas to small details. And funny too! What more could you ask for? Merry Christmas.
I love "The winter sky was splattered with stars" - the word splattered especially. Also the listening to the night. The note of regret is lightened by the writing in the snow. Well done EW, Happy Christmas!.
You've captured some of that Christmas magic. Love it!!
Yes, just the right amount of magic too. Like a dusting of snow.

"the milky way stretched like a frosty road"
I like that image.
Time calmed down - I love that line! Great poem, glad to find you.
Brillaint ending...love the build up. Nice one, Kate!
Really like it. I think I'll try the snow graffiti trick myself, as it looks like we're in for a white Christmas.
Thanks for all your lovely comments. Almost as enjoyable as writing the poem. Have a magically Christmas
I really loved this - especially, the beautiful punch-line ending.
I loved the Milky Way line and the ending was fantastic!
Happy Christmas to you and yours!
