Hi Michelle. .... What a captivating poem in fourteen words!... Wasn't planning to comment on list here, a long process... Just want to say I find yours marvellous.... Death, and the idea of thawing and moving toward a more fluid place. I love the eeriness, happiness, and a rhyme - so cool! - for good measure..... Congratulations!

Excellent penning, Michelle... Good old frozen Latin (taught by frozen teachers, like the ones I had). Super write, Gershon

I actually about 100 Latin phrases (cliches) that I learned in 1962! ~ Ad astra per aspera, Gershon

The only Latin I know is 'Oh Come All Ye Faithful' (we learned it in Latin) - thanks for your comment, my friend, hope all is well with you!
