25 August







filtering the pieces out
 

she rides the train south

it's not always easy to keep fierce

enough she cries out 

 of the bitterness



and steps into the gusting of a warm spring day

    I have a feeling that the warm spring day will dissipate her fierceness. What do you think?

    Such a beautiful choosing of words!

    I am immersed in deep winter right now, so it is a wonderful thought
    "the gusting of a warm spring day"

    You create so beautiful poems, aspiritofsimplicity.

    I do not know why, but somehow, this one brought to mind Emily Dickinson's "A route of evanescence".

    Thank you!
