Frost and snow in soggy ground Little boy with matches in his hand No hat no jacket Bare feet which is blue of cold No mother no father He's hungry 14.01.2013 A-L Andresen :)

Hello my dear friend Anne Lise! It's really nice to read this once again. Sad but excellent poem and imagery! It's one of your masterpieces which I treasure much & I missed to click it ('cuz of 4getfulness) It's good that I've found it in my usb where I saved my poetry. Again, thank you, thank you sooo much!!! Big big sweetest hugs to you! Have a nice weekend! love lots, Leonora

This is so awesome and unique write my dear friend Anne-Lise. The image is so touching as well. I extremely love it! In fact, from your poem, i want to capture the image through my paint brush (through imagination) hopefully on my long holiday with your kind permission. It's really a very beautiful picture/image although it's sad. i'll try and hope I can do it successfully. Is it fine with you my dear friend if I'll copy it? Million thanks to you for sharing! love always, Leonora

This, as so many of our friends have said below, is such a sad write my friend! I agree with Lucilla, no child should have to suffer like this with the hunger and cold! We should be a better place than this! What an observation to write about Anne-Lise, Great Work!!
