Interesting progression here, Edward. I hope, too, that "true love" will walk "right in and thaw" that heart.

True love can thaw a frozen heart. Wonderfully emotive--succinctly done in your signature form, Edward.

I like this, Edward! I tend to fancy syllabic forms, as you've probably noticed by now. Is the formatting part of your form? Blessings, Kim M
