Winter window only light

Sneer sneer sneer i hear you.
I'll keep that simple smile and sharp tongue I often cut myself with.

Ripped page with fond remembrance
I love the freeze and still dark night lights
Newly foot-printed snow.
Giving my regards to sleepy neighbors.

Ivy climbs my mind and stone walls, slate gray ones.

A fine lazy mess – my limbs lie.

Bottom right window flanking stairway door. Third pane on the left.

Lost thumbprint, lost heart, lost leaf. Like all the others, but it seems it means more.

Teardrop keys like a bobby-pin lock – pick. Once they dry I'm stuck.

Red disappointment
Sunburn creeping out from under my skin
It's been there for a while.

Spreading myself on these smooth pages feels much better.

umm...this isn't really a poem. the lines have no connection except they were all written on the same day. i just wanted to clear my mind of some phrases and ideas and i went a bit crazy, but it was fun haha :)

I agree, very creative. Sometimes the masterpieces are the words written without worrying what people will think. True, I can't find a theme or common meaning, but each line evidently has its own meaning and it sounds beautiful together. Keep up the good work.
