Wow, this was an incredible poem to share publicly since it sounds like it's been a while since you published your work. I loved the way it started whimsical and slowly descended into a far darker, more emotional piece.
The ending, with spring pulling the winter knife from your hand was such a powerful image. Like the sun melts it away.
Boo, this is incredible. I wasn't expecting the turn at the end which makes it really deep, raw and honest. This one really hit me :
"until spring
slips it out of my grasp
and I can run away
again".
Keep writing, Boo - the world needs you.
I'd say keep them coming my talented new acquaintance! Nice to find you, Boo.
I look forward to reading your work as well. I love to find travelers!
Awww thank you so
much!!!
Wow! Really enjoyed the pacing, it starts languid & relaxed & then...sped into frantic emotions.
Thank you so much! That was the day....

Thank you so much for the kind words and support!

during the night like wet laundry”
