ok this is for all of you who replied to my little story about were i am. i hope you like its something new.


  This time of year doe's chill
My bones and with no one
          H
           E
            R
             E
I'm on my thrown all-alone covered
          In snow
    Slowly turning to stone
  Having only a seat but, nowhere
        To call my own
            Home.


Reply: some of you  might think this is about the winter time and if thats how you grip it great. but for me its about being alone and having a place to go.

No bad JJ...little mysticism there.  Nice flow, well written...didn't feel wintry at all to me, just the coldness of aloneness.  One question: am I wrong, or should "thrown" be "throne"?

Nice read

Jeremiah, I feel the same way, no place to call home, just the place you are, and its not the right one. Alone is cold, no matter what season. I liked the format and the feeling here.
