skeletal tree fingers
grasp at the winter sky
with clutching grip

shades of grey and deep purple
and pink and gold
highlighted behind winter's death

sculptured clouds
on a painter's palette

late winter's art gallery
on a canvas of sky
formed by the brush of God

Angel,
this is so very good...sharp with imagery.
Im ready for winter to move on myself.
take care, janet marie

 "...we were born before the wind...also younger than the sun...
and my heart you have won...as we sailed into the mystic...
I just want to rock your gypsy soul-
just like in the days of old...
and together we will float-into the mystic...

i love the colors you chose in this poem for some reason. it wouldn`t have been as "picturesque" with any others.

p.s. I also love the quote at the end.

...late winter's art gallery... Very clever using the word "late"...to me it says that the painting is so complete and final...just as the season has matured to its fullest point.
