Put a color to the wind, make it deep with harsh overtones as the last moments of November are rushed so that December might find hold as splintered slivers of ice, silver-edged, in some grace of space between window and pane. " It matters not this distance now " Excerpt, Yesterday's Love |

Old windows, like the shadows and cobwebs of my mind... Poet, said my Muse to me, look in thy heart and write. |

SIL, I think I looked out that window at my mother's old farm house in Ohio many years ago. I surely do not miss those icy winters when the wind is howling. (That's the image I saw here.) *hugs*....jo |

"in some grace of space between window and pane." ~ Only a poetess with an eye such as yours, could capture that space with such grace.  Love & Sun Light, Linda  |

Beautiful description of the sharp cold--couldn't help but shiver at the slivers of ice. Great time to be inside looking out...and you said it so well! Hugs! Shenachie |

interesting 'write!' I am particularly fond of the ending: "December might find hold as splintered slivers of ice, silver-edged, in some grace of space between window and pane" Applause!! |

Thank you, everyone. This is dedicated to my friends' farm house, out in the middle of nature and wheat fields. Nothing sounds quite like a winter wind in an old farm house... warm [This message has been edited by Sunshine (12-06-2007 10:19 AM).] |
