Hmm, any thoughts on this?

I'm in a condition to answer now: Glad you kept it open.

It sounds like a bittersweet lament to the end of winter. But don't you want that? But isn't snow pretty?

You know what? In a few months, we will be wishing for snow. I hope I have seen my last flake for now.

This poem is a lovely tribute to winter, also know as Old Man Winter.

You feminizing it, makes it softer. Very nicely written.

Last two stanzas, yep.

I love the looks of winter, can't take the cold so I too mourn the loss of winter as spring breaks forth all around me.

This is excellent!

Loved it. Winter is beautiful, yet I won't be sad for sun and warmth. That's the kind of guy I am. The last stanza was killer by the way.

I thought I was going to have to stop reading after a few lines. My grandfather is in the hospital and dying of cancer. I contined, however, and glad I did. "Annual slumber" made me think "circle of life" and I found a smidge of peace here. Thank you.

You need to get over this attraction to Winter! lol I liked the ending two stanzas.

Your writing is very graceful; as is, Winter fading into Spring.

I'm glad I walked with you through all the stanzas, at first I thought

morbid......a fool-er this is, a lovely farewell to winter's beauty.

But I do welcome Spring, more so this one then any other.

Its very good

I know your snowflake
