Snow
I am swept off by the north wind, grappling to find a foothold, wishing you could hold me one more time. The cold clutch of gloom drags me along the first snow of the season. Powerless, I look at those who offer weary words. Draping your memories around me, I stare at the clock that refuses to chime.
My world is dreary
I am enshrouded by snow
snow queen’s lullaby
buries me deeper into
the obscurity of time.

While I am floundering in the sea of grief, I owe gratitude to all my blogger buddies for their kind words of solace. My clock has been standing still but I am trying my best to get back to blogging. Thank you.
Thanks to Colleen’s prompt for nudging me to keep writing.

Your clock stands still to honor him. Your poem is beautiful. Like an ice pack brings down the swelling of a strained ligament, the snow enshrouds you to protect your heart from exploding. You can’t keep going at a normal pace. Time and the cold stops to allow you to heal enough to face living again. God bless you.
Thanks for understanding the depth of a painful heart Marsha. 🤗
