. The broken ice Heaves and laps Along the snowy shore Summer cabins With windows boarded up Seem as stoic monuments To that other time On the cliff above Wind shushes through The dark pine groves While leafless birches Creak a little and then Are still The sound Of no one at the door I hope it’s not too cold Wherever you are Take care . |

I miss birches....but I do not miss the sound of no one at the door. What an excellent image! You have a gift, for images that touch the soul. ~~(¸¸¸¸ºº> ~~(¸¸¸¸ºº> ~~(¸¸ ¸¸ºº> ~~~(¸¸ER¸¸ºº> |

yes...grand-fine imagery!: "Summer cabins With windows boarded up ...stoic monuments To that other time..." and particularly: Wind...through ...dark pine groves ...leafless birches Creak a little and then Are still The sound Of no one at the door" superb! [sustained applause!!] |
