the snow
        f
         a
          l
           l
            s

a January wind
                blows

I'm standing outside
          watching it
                      f
                       a
                        l
                         l

I reach for your hand
                              it's not there
             but yet. . .

                                       . . . I felt it's warmth
that's when I
                knew

that I was
           in love
                    with
                           you. . .

This reminds me of something I did a while back . . . might have to dig it up.  Colder than a witch's *** here tonight (and coming your way, Sven).  This added a nice little bit of warmth.  Thanks

I love the snow, and the company of a hand makes it all the better. Nice style... i loved it.

doreen, well. . . it was this time first. . . and it was that other time when. . . well, send me that e-mail!!!  
Thank you so much. . . yes, it is "cummingsesque" (Is that a word) in a way. . . he's always been my favorite. . . and I've adopted his style for a lot of my stuff. . .

Melissa, I'm sure that I wasn't the Bard in a past life. . . although I can tell you that he was a great guy!     Thank you. . .

Jeremy, thank you. . . yes, another hand always makes it better. . .
