The poem was written during my book creation process to capture a wintertime reality. It can, however, be viewed as a highly metaphorical poem addressing what happens when challenge, misfortune, a tragedy, etc. occur in one’s life. The first verse identifies the misfortune; the second, the reaction; the third, the outcome. Honestly, it is moments like this insight which give me chills because they make me realize I am not alone in this writing process, whatever that means. I just know that consciously I had not intended this alternative interpretation, but it can be read clearly now. As I said when discussing my book’s creation in my other blog, Judith Mercado (http://judithmercadoauthor.blogspot.com/2014/01/from-creation-to-transformation.html), these poems are the universe’s gift to me.<br /><br />Karen, I’m glad I was able to describe it well. <br /><br />Muff, It helps that I once lived in Chicago.<br /><br />Line, thank you for visiting my blog and for your kind words about my poem.<br /><br />Anne, I, too, hope the weather is favorable when you come.<br /><br />Judyhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/07141627284221873201noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6061553352521825408.post-24850301236576636682014-01-30T13:33:28.158-05:002014-01-30T13:33:28.158-05:00ohhhh...I just hope it gets warmer there as going ...ohhhh...I just hope it gets warmer there as going to visit your state next month escaping the cold weather we have hereAnnehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/15386044565830996956noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6061553352521825408.post-60421743008192505142014-01-30T02:56:16.873-05:002014-01-30T02:56:16.873-05:00I simply loved this poem!
