I saw the winter wash away the spring as flowers faded into grey and oceans of snow covered barren fields as black trees freeze in the light of day the city street lined with snow is clouded with fog in the pale light of dawn as sleepers wake under heavy blankets and the weary beggar wanders on... I thought you might like a taste of Winter in the middle of the Summer's nastiness. I know I needed it. Sing while you may |

Indeed, this is a very refreshing break from the summer heat. Winter is my favorite time of the year, and I love your image of a snowy street blanketed in fog. "Those who dream by day are cognizant of many things which escape those who dream only by night." -Edgar Allen Poe |

Summer? What summer? Summer forgot about Germany this year  Your ode to the winter is excellent, though, and it has made me remember how yucky winter really is. Though it does have its beauty too (babbly, blabla ...) < !signature--> Lotharingia "Dreams are life, reality, creation" Miguel de Unanumo [This message has been edited by lotharingia (edited 08-03-2000).] |

I agree with Lotharingia,what summer.It's midwinter here in Australia. No romantic snow but lots of rain. Thanks for reminding me of winter can really be like. Kethry Kethry. When dark of night steals your soul. Think of me and be made whole. |

Ian, nice thoughts on Winter, and I too hate the excessive heat, give me a lovely cool day and a roaring fireplace to sit in front of, any day. Perfect, expressive poem. |

I agree. Very refreshing indeed!(or did I just bite into a peppermint pattie?) No, seriously I really enjoyed this one! Take care. ~Sash~ |

Thank you all for writing. The heat in Ohio has taken a turn for the worse. Oh to be in Deutchland! Or in the rains of Australia. Of course, I'll be complaining about all of the ice on these hills come January.
