Winter skies
barren fields
ice-ring trees
faces passing
strangers all

I love the imagery you paint here, I don't perceive it as "cold", even though of course it is sad when all people are deemed strangers. But then that is an illusion, we are very much connected with each other, but we happen to lack this wonderful awareness.

Take solace in the thought that there will be soon beautiful little snowdrops that will pierce the snow, starting the awakening of Nature again ... Isn't that just miraculous and enough to vibrate in joy?

Love,
Margherita

hello Bruce, this is poignant and contrasting, I like the sensation of impossibility in your poem.

secondhanddreampoet - I sense the coldness in this writing, but how true...
