This is the kind of winter we all daydream about in the summer, before we're in the midst of it. The kind without black-ice roads and a below-zero wind chill and gray slush everywhere -- just a quaint, peaceful, magical hush blanketing everything, snow twinkling in the sunlight. Today, you've reminded me to appreciate the beauty of the season.
Dark, but when it comes to climate change, we all need a kick in the pants. Contrasting an innocent, majestic tree to the unctuous, greedy desires of humankind is a unique way to shine light on the topic. The short lines in the last two stanzas are jarring and drive home the point you're making.
Thanks you! I think we all needed a little positivity when it’s raining in January.
Thank you!
Thanks!
Thanks!
Love it. The intensity of the inner monologue and the simplicity of the action adds a comedic value that is just perfect.
Amen!!
