Northern thoughts

A feather falls,
floating on this cool autumn breeze
Aimlessly spinning
until it lands at my feet

I look up and see two silhouettes
against an azure backdrop
Happily flying towards the south,
taking my thoughts north

Where winter has embraced the landscape
in a fresh blanket of pristine snow
Glistening on pine tree branches,
tickling fields once green

And I smile knowing
in this chilly place of frozen lakes
and sub zero sunrises
waits my warmth - and it is you

Well, I know you're no longer here so I'm firing a review into the void, but for some poets, I do read pretty much every read request. this must mark the spot where I left off over a year ago. A wonderful write. You are missed.

[Jeannette Lunete]

Well, that's what I call stunning imagery. My feedback seems shallow, but I can't find the right words to express how amazed I'm. At least a special corner in my library can attest it. :)

In this you again paint a picture in such sharp focus that sounds like an empty lens then you fill it with the colours of love. Your final line in this piece is a killer, so romantic!
