Snow-Birds settling
Made all the difference
She thought of their
Settling
And of the light they gave
And became in her way
As grey
As they

Dretta, a delight to read your poem. Your use of repetition makes the poem emotionally effective. Thanks for sharing.
Chen-ou
Gretta,
I am not a new fan of your work. When I see your name, I know it will be good. Better than others. One of the best. Wish there were a superaltive of the 4th order. Today, I see Chen-ou-Liu got here first. This is a poet whose work I see in a lot of places –– someone whose “delight” is a coup for anyone afflicted with the presumption to have written something worth reading. Brava.
Amicus poeticae,
Neal Whitman aka Poetry Prof
The peace and light of the greyness is lovely, thank you.
Lovely thoughts
