washed linens
ruffled by a breeze --
snowdrifts a distant memory

  1. This is infinitely beautiful, the symbolism is poignant, the words are so delicate. My favourite part is the last line, there is something timelessly moving about it.

  3. always greener.
    the other side.
    always whiter.
    the OTHER season.
    did it really happen?
    when it becomes this hot, it seems endless.
    when snowed in, summer seems so far away.
    did winter really happen? i say now.
    will summer return? i say then.
