Classical poetry at its best, Ron. You have evoked everything about this special and fleeting moment so well, and encapsulated in fine verse. Love the stillness and yet the inner strength in both image and form. A finely crafted write that I can see becoming an autumn favourite - hope you publish! TY Kate xx
Anything natural I enjoy to read, and this gave me much enjoyment...thanks & thanks for the email about the kid playing baseball, it brightened my day as well as made me cry...so nice for a change...Ed
This is simply beautiful, Ron. I am not so sure I share your sense of winter in that I rather like the winter. It makes me want to settle in and cozy up, steal catnaps in the middle of the afternoon. I am already teased by thoughts of big pots of soup, simmering on the stove, adding their rich fragrance to my home and the sweet scent of yeast from the homemade bread rising in the kitchen; family and friends gathering round waiting to enjoy the winter's fare...followed by a long afternoon nap. Fragrances of winter: snow, evergreen, wood fires and special homemade treats...it just doesn't get much better than that!
