Storm


With snow flaking in glass,
My full arms are frozen 
To the orangelight croon off kilter,
As the streetlamp now creaks, moved

My full arms are frozen,
White lies bright,
As the streetlamp now creaks, moved
The ice is not as rabid — 

White lies bright
To the orangelight croon off kilter;
The ice is not as rabid
With snow flaking in glass.

Pantoum is difficult form, still you have attempted to do it. Congratulations, dear friend.

I'm so glad you came back to the place you never left. I would have missed out on the feelings your imagery creates, just like this poem, feeling spikes high. Surely you kept a copy of ALL your poems in a typing program on your device???? I hope so.

Exquisite imagery. A song is sung in the cold of winters snow, a little piece of life's hardships thru a window. Faving. Keep warm xXhugs!
