It was winter
rest assured
it was the blanket of snow
that colored the soft covered roof
of her homes light brown hair

Her eyes fasted that night
closed, private
with her eyelashes
touching the ground
touching a small part
of the mole on the right side off her neck

She's listened to her own thoughts
those wild fantasies
of a woman with her heart
on the sad trail of a morning walk

Such a deep sigh within her voice
that you could feel a pain unleash
beside her cream, colored skirt

Never did the tears
like the fall of a shadow
side with the buildings rough, curved brick tiles

For she wore the side of her heart
towards the sunset
where only a gaze
could sigh along her slender figure

Where the heart roams
the cattle follow
but the heart followed
the cattle's rumble
Tears of the heart
under the tigers slight growl
fading away with her perished smile.

Tomer, this exquisite poem is snow-soft and quiver-sensitive, yet decade-memorable.  I love the whole poem, but my favourite lines are the secondlast stanza.  I am sorry that it doesn’t have a title, though.  That isn’t like you not to find the words you want.

Owl-

I enjoyed that stanza, as well.  Your comments about the piece are heartfelt.  

The title just couldn't come to me for some reason...one of those days.  Hope you're well

Cheers

Tomer
