Winter

WINTER you come, as unwelcome, as rain on a sunny day, and you play a game of how cold you can hurt. the flowers, the fresh smell of nature rides on Aeolus, to different time, different place, some far away land. and what stays, dies forever, or succumbs to await its return. you hurt, cold, brisk, so windy, and then you cry. you cry on all, dry white tears, that pile so high, we must pick them up and await the residue to melt.

Ooh…loveliness and emotive! Where one finds joy, another hurts. I love Sylvia Plath’s “Tulips.” Have you read. Your poem reminds me of hers.
