Loved the seasonal comparisons and the descriptive phrases to describe each. \"damp breeze which shuddered across her bones,\" and \"wrap up warm.\" Let\'s not forget the enchanting title phrase as well, \"the only love she held onto\"\". Just great stuff. Brilliant! - Phil A.

ANGELA & BRIAN said:

ANGELA HERE - Good afternoon DA - I agree in Classic Poetry it*s very important. Brian & I use * instead of \' because the MPS ////// (added obliques) spoil the appearance of the Poem. Poets on MPS who post Modern Poetry - Post it sans grammar sans rhyme - sans rhythm & sans reason ! Thanks for caring - about the oft castigated apostrophes.

Peace & Joy to You & Yours
Yours ANGELA πŸ’›πŸ’›πŸ’›

Goldfinch60 said:

a\'postophe eh; but, surely the ///, must be meaning\'ful in some instance\'s?

the curse of the apostrophe
orchidee said:

Yes, the //// horror seems to happen if we edit our own comments on other poets, or our own works. Should there be an apostrophe in \"poet\'s\"?

Love it DA

the curse of the apostrophe
Michael Edwards said:

Ah punctuation in total. I get hot under the collar when it\'s used incorrectly but poetry can, at a stretch, be regarded as an exception as can bad grammar. Now the Oxford comma is another matter - will post something about it tomorrow.

Sad but beautifully phrased this lament for love lost - - \"I sang from my heart\" is such a touching line D.A that shows depth now missed.

Goldfinch60 said:

Those windy days can be so wondrous.

We used to go up to the Yorkshire Dales, God\'s country, many times. One day Joyce had down some washing and hung it out and it poured hard but the wind was so strong the washing was horizontal and to this do I cannot explain it bu the washing dried in the rain.

Happy memories you versed here my friend when younger long legs conquered both wind and high climbs - Malvern heights I too know well as I lived near that area for a while and found such adventure hiking those hills Love the illustrative picture you chose to raise a smile D.A. - - how great to be free on windy days to feel fresh with energy after tackling those hills whatever the season.

ANGELA & BRIAN said:

BRIAN HERE ~ Thanks for sharing DA. Much more windy in Lancashire (where I was born) than
Essex. Especially when one got past Lancaster and into the Lake District. In my experience I always think the wind refreshes the Earth moreso than the rain. In our poem today We mention the Sun driving the Water Cycle ~ it also of course drives the Atmospheric (Wind) Cycle ! When we have Odes about Nature (even at Her fiercest !) Im so pleased We live on Planet Earth ~ never a dull day !

Peace & Joy to You & Yours
Yours ~ Brian & Angela πŸ§‘πŸ€πŸ’™
Love the visual ~ is that a windblown gamp ?
