Winter Sun

Winter sun
spreads out flat
on a brown field.

One dead tree shadow
interrupts the grass
and paints sharp
intersections and
parallel arrows.

The two o’clock hour
counts out lonely
heartbeats and hurtful
memories.

Dark comes quickly,
hiding nature and
humanity from
the flatness of
winter days.

Written as only an artist could! You certainly captured the desolate feeling some dry winter landscapes can bring...although I know this goes deeper into your soul than that. Great imagery.

Only I am seeing the darkside of this surreal piece of astounding poetry. But then, maybe only I have enough of the dark side that I can ferret it out, wherever it is.

Excellent poetry, Janet - seen as only a true artist and painter of words and pictures can. Beautifully defined and confidently not over-stated... I am told at school that my work is overwritten and therefore shows insecurity and lack of confidence... not so this lovely piece which, like a wonderful picture, could be stared at for ages and still find new things in it! One of your best, I think!! Love it, TY Kate xx
