Nothing much to say....but it's a crystalline poem. Certainly very crystalline. I have no idea what that means... : ) It ends abruptly, just kind of fading away...

Snowstorm

Have you ever stood out
in the wind
and the snow
and become a monolith in a world of white?

Have you ever pushed out
the cold and
the ice
and looked at life through
frost-tinted eyes?

Have you ever thought of your
invading shape the
color of paint?
When all dies to the touch, it's best
to be white.

Have you ever?
Have you ever?

Waited to bloom?

Caminus Ignis Ventosus Stillicidium
Super insum rectus elementum.
Prosum in tui tabella.

Stunning.
I love how it's so simple and pure.
Absolutely wonderful imagery. It brings me back to my early childhood.
You cheered me up very well with this refreshing poem. Thank you!

I wonder just how many others
will look through this and see
the mirror...

well done...
