Early Snowflakes

The juxtaposition and metaphor is really well conceived old pesky. The penultimate stanza is really good. I like it especially when we are taken on a surprising and unanticipated journey. rebirth and redirection, into the sky, back again, metamorphosis - superb, I could go on, but I'll just finish on a "well done"

new Oldpesky THIS MUST BE A TOP SELLER! SHOULD BE POEM OF THE WEEK. Hi! My goodness, I don't know about snowflakes! falling yet! But this went straight to my heart strings ping! What a wonderful romantic poem,you have written. Anyone would love this in a card of any kind. I am sure 1oo% The last stanza Beauty gone in the thaw, reincarnation beholds, together we rise to the clouds and dance with the wind, awaiting our chance to do it all again! Hope your better now. Sent off photos of 'Terry Winstanley' Of x Factor show! Wow! show we went to. and the 8 stars had in the show. Hope they got there. Hope all is well with you. Glad your son is doing fine. x cavalcaderl julie x

Really very lovely, you are a softie, more please.

Ah - I knew you were a softie really. This is beauty incarnate. A vey well-deserved cherry if you ask me (not that you ever do - sob).

Ah. Second thoughts are always the best. Poetry in this is first class. It does not require explanation. But I must admit to a slight, sly grin blighters. Thankyou both.

I hate multi-talented people like you and I'm not jealous at all though a tiny bit of me wishes I'd written your poem - sort of....
