/I only think of her in winter/ [ORIGINAL POEM by @mindhunter]mindhunter (72)in #poetry • 8 years ago dry my tears from spring / interested in the dark of december / never feeling too warm / taking search for dry wood to bind / everyone is joyful / resting for the [12] days of Christmas to come / I only think of her in winter #story #life #winter
Just images fused to words!
Repeat after me @lynchiandream "Immature poets imitate; mature poets steal." ;)
Reminds Me Of

Welcome To American Country
@mindhunter
Now we have images fused to lyrics! Ha ha!
True

Thx for the up-vote @anns

@mindhunter
The fact that words strain, crack, and break might serve as the grounds for criticism: look at how this poem fails to reach perfection!
Correct. Great feedback. When I experience a poem’s radical failure, I must be measuring it against some other ideal.
A less bad poet would not make the distance between the virtual and the actual so palpable or so immediate, so there is hope.
We should share a few pints at the 'Steemit Festival of Poetry'!
...there is always hope.
You'll make a decent poet one day friend.
Thank you my poetic guru!
Simple poetry done well @mindhunter
Simple is best for a poetic warm-up!

Warming us up for winter? Great work!
Sure am. Great work? Mmmmmm....3/10 on my own scale - a wee Winter poetic warm up there - this took me just 5 minutes to write.
(I'm surprised it's got so many up-votes to be honest!)
