frozen keep, ice dammed
crystalline walls cracked and breached
anguish but delayed

a heart aligned with winter
faces sacrifice come spring

Nice article @prydefoltz!

There is a mysterious alchemy at work here, P. Your work moves me to an unexpected place and I appreciate the experience. Thank you!

Like hearing that. Thank you, BH:)

Good post @prydefoltz! This part intrigues me..

a heart aligned with winter
faces sacrifice come spring

Thank you, wandergirl. The heart tends to demand its due one way or another. Choosing unloving thoughts to protect oneself only delays pain.

I love your poetry.

Thank you, Blanca:)

Keep them coming @prydefoltz...
Your poetry is always a pleasure to read 🤓

Thank you, Moon:)

Good 🦋

Thank you, May:)

poetry in a different key - the sound of drums where even nature is hostile

Thank you, John:) Nature does not like to be denied for too long. At least that has been my experience. I used to write tanka all the time. Like haiku, they can get a grip on you:)

There’s an almost dire expectancy looking toward Spring.
