Before It Froze - Lei

As the wind blew strong on the face The head tipped downward, in this place Lost in the fog, with pelting sleet Would there be two tracks that will meet? Then a touch of a fingertip, Wiped the last tear drop from a drip Before it froze with a heart closed Love’s warmth cured the danger it posed Heidi Sands 1/1/20 Placed 3rd in the Lay It On Me – 8x8 Poetry Contest. 8 Lines 8 Syllables AA BB CC DD

This is quite lovely Heidi---it flows like a song-- and so full of heart warming overtones-- on edges of sad. Excellent write..a winner for me.
