Snow-Capped Peaks Along My Spine

by Gabrielle L Gervais

When winter arrives
while I'm near you, ice makes roots
where your touch neglects.

I really like this, and it could be made into a tanka very easily. I wonder if ice takes roots, might be considered? Very unique and effective, this poem.

What a beautiful but paradoxical association.Brilliant. All the best.

Ice taking root absent the warmth of touch is such a potent image. Excellent!
