The Wind Chill wipers
stealing the warmth from faces
grim teeth clenching smiles

Sad frozen faces
Pansies with their smile gone
laughter waits till Spring

The Earth's frozen face
Springs Hope hidden deep within
Love's seed eternal

A friend hears the song in my heart, and sings it to me when my memory fails.

I love these Ellie.  So sweet and sharp.  I am trying to think towards spring now,  but these really portray winter.  Love, Joyce

Ellie,
   The essence of winter captured by the economy of words, plus the forward expectation of Spring, the time of resurection.  Thoughtful and clever.

P.U.Y.M.S.
