The book had opened up, first page displayed; Opening lines were warm and fresh The plot was clear... Printed there in thawing browns, And slivers of new greens; Good reading in the prelude tale of spring. * But north-wind came up strong and ruffled sheets, Blowing shut the covers of the tome; I cannot read the book today because it closed, Censored by the cold, and mid-March snow. |

Your poems are beautifuly haunting and echoing...you express yourself so well.... And with the cold you weave thoughts so desolate..but i like desolate.... Thank you... Goldenrose. ''Each soul is potentialy divine..the goal is to manifest that divinity'' |
