Notes About The Poem

Recipe for Winter

Ivory recipe box.
Outside, 
snow swirls
along the fence line
where December 
gathers its courage.

Inside, 
her handwriting 
still rises 
from every card.

I follow 
the faded ingredients
like footsteps through weather,
grateful she left a way home.

I've really been enjoying your poem and the emotions and imagery were so vivid that i could easily picture them as beautiful illustration. I'm a commission-based manga/webtoon artist,and I’d love to discuss the possibility of bringing this poem to life if you're ever interested. Feel free to reach out at gm@il : [email protected]
