In early morning stillness Snow powdering window’s view Heart lost in flurry Swirling thoughts of you Intimate recollection With sips from warm brew Stirring, recomposing Old memories made new Silent echoes reach out Call in reminding pursue This aching, this wanting Will never be through Anticipating, contemplating All I should do Preparing for storm About to ensue Dressing in layers Wishing to subdue These wintering remembrances Of when I loved you ~SEA~ |

Nice working the feel of the metaphor, I think I actually felt a chill and could just "see" you staring out of the window, lost in thought. Great job with this one, Sue! |

Intimate recollection With sips from warm brew Stirring, recomposing Old memories made new Silent echoes reach out Call in reminding pursue This aching, this wanting Will never be through ================================== This is excellent writing Sea... very cool rhyme scheme, vocab, phrasing and use of imagery and the incoming season to express the emotions... I for one am greatly enjoying watching your poetry mature and seeing you reach deep for the words. As for that ache? ya know what "they" say ... what dont kill us makes us moths...errr I mean--stronger he said ... "dont cry" ... |

*sigh* the magic of snow brought back magical memories of love for you. How very beautiful this poem is. I love it. It has such a wishful feel to it. Love I leave with you whether it is in your life now or yet the essense of your dreams. |

SEA, the longing in this brings back memories of someone I wish was a lot closer. Thank you, I enjoyed. Andrea Summon the courage to step out of your familiar rut and suddenly many of those things which held you back will no longer have the power to do so. |

Lovely reminisces this morning to go with my morning coffee as I try to wake up. If she who dies with the most toys wins, then can I have some toy boys please? |

All I can say is WOW!!!!!!! I leave for a little while and come back and find that our little SEA as grown to a new level in her poetry and I am much impressed my friend. It is so nice to see you stretching that talent of yours to the levels that we all know you can reach. Much enjoyed and look forward to reading many more. |
