Cottage- I think I need to live here.:

The life light shimmers in the air Love and delights Death and pain Drowsy in numbness The leaves have never known Embalmed darkness with grief Cold winter is coming soon Silver bells and white snow Stardust, northern lights and moonlight While wonder and guesses 01.10.2016 Sun :) - A-L Andresen :) (unrhymed couplets) Copyright © All Rights Reserved

Hello Anne-Lise, These couplets rendered under the title of "October" (to me) are quite meaningful and bespeak definite images which compare and contrast with one another in a very interesting fashion. What an interesting technique, with the image-statement first, then followed projected result in each couplet. At least this is what I both see and interpret. Short verses in this instance, written cogently and with an immediacy, can be very powerful to the reader. TR/FAV!! Best, Gary
