Cold sunshine writes our elegy in frost,
Author of light a million snowflakes lost,
All gone forever into swirling air,
A dance of death that is no longer there.

Cold sunshine writes our elegy in frost - How much more imaginative can one get. Such lines - so sweet and so gentle - scribble their immortality on one's heart and offers the reader that gentle fragrance which contributes to the beauty and the meaningfulness of life. Take care

Stunning work of deep and serious reflection using the beautiful metaphor of frost and snow. ' West is a shadow wrapped around frail bones'. Again you express those twin emotions of regret and acceptance. This poem says much. Superb. Fond regards to you Sandra, Alison

Hi Sandra: Touch is a brevity that needs no sound To turn the weather of the world around. beautifull thoughts. If only our governments would take heed; as to the shortness of time. Charles Garcia

The first stanza reminded me of when I was a child, looking up at the sky from a window, watching the snowflakes falling, which appeared black against a white sky, and hoping they would never stop. Of course they always did. The final stanza is stunning. How warm is that touch, that all else is irrelevent! Lovely poem, Patrick
