The tingly point of chill
Until my tongue has had its fill

Playful and yet profound at once. A favorite winter activity of mine as well...
Warm Wishes,

interesting ...winter tastes are different.. neerja :)

... and ain't it just amazing how differently they taste, each one, too... telling of their origin and formation. Sensuous and cool... and totally tasty! :)) xx

MAY EVERY DAY OF WINTER BRING JOY AND HAPPINESS IN YOUR HEART, DEAR GENE!!!!!!!!!!!! Liana Margiva

Catch me, I've always been here...

Gene you have a way with us.

A season in a moment of experience and unique Gene reflection.
A gem!

James O.H. Phillips would be proud of this poem Gene. I have peened but a very few this succinct. None of mine were accepted. Reading yours and recognizing just how marvelous it is, encourages me to revisit the style with another attempt. I enjoyed this work very much my dear friend. I bid you love and peace. Jon Michael

i have been thinking more and moe lately about something my father told me when i was very young about poetry. he said: poetry is all about the art of saying the most with the least. the most with the least! so i've been thinking about striking this course for a while and have to admit that you have inspired me to perhaps begin doing with your last two offerings, which capture the art of "most with the least" perfectly. take care.

Do they cross country ski on a December shore? I miss skiing.

You just best be watching yourself young man...walking in that weather today was not easy...I drove to Sea Isle from Buena & back and had a blast...e

I wonder if our respective snowflakes taste different. My goal is to end up on a shore - retirement, as it were, so I need to make sure shore flakes are chocolatey. Butter-pecan will do too. Know what i find interesting? Thirsty dogs eat snow. How do they know snow is water? Anyway, may you catch many snowflakes in this new year, and have other similarly pleasant moments - tons of them!

Sounds like fun.

This simple, yet profound image heralds a host of wonderful memories. It is a gem.
