I came here to speak on the mastery of snow here as a legitimate medium, for this is so much more than a snow(wo)man -- it is a true work of art -- but I want to say that your caption adds another layer to the sculpture as well. I can see and interpret her, now, in the empowered way you speak of. Her little belly and bellybutton make me smile, too!
Such a visually shocking and brilliant contrast, between the gray, linear slabs of rock and the vibrancy of nature! Although I know the bars are merely there for safety, it almost feels as if they represent an imprisonment here, a forced separation from the outside world.
I remember watching her speak, what feels like so long ago now, and feeling just as inspired as this poem is. This piece reads with such a spark, like the spark you mention in hers!
I have been in a writing slump too! But I literally can't write anything. I recently got an idea for a new 'big story project' as I call them, and that has actually got me writing again. That's my only piece of half-baked advice, so I hope it half-helps!
This is so amazing! Just looking at it brings me joy.
This poem is absolutely amazing! I love the repetition and how relatable this is. I love the line; ¨Now its cold that takes our spring". :)

Thanks!
I don't think I've ever read a poem that captures this feeling so perfectly. When you read this it moves you through time so smoothly. It's wonderful.
This is beautiful. I love the connection to bleeding heart flowers; it really highlights the contrasts of love and loss.
