On those cold winter days,
when all is bright;
The sun is shining and reflecting off the snow covered ground.
Outside, the air is crisp and full of hope.
I sip my mid-day coffee,
watching the people in the streets
soaking up the apricity, when it comes.

I like the idea of the air being full of hope . Nice writing 🙂 apricity is not a word I know of ,
Thank you. 🙂 I like the idea too. Apricity is a new word for me too, it means to enjoy the sun in winter.
Good write D.
Thank you!
Winter is one of our best features in Europe as it paints the world virgin white and offers so much free entertainment to children from sleds to snowball's. So glad you can now share both its beauty and its chill .
That is so true!
Had to go to the dictionary for this one. Very nice seasonal write Draven🙂
I also googled the word as I had never heard of the word before … but it’s a nice word …
me too! haha. and thank you
Hey apricity is generally thought to be a noun, which makes the use grammatically incorrect.
Loved the poem, but just wanted to be accurate.
Is it? Can you give me an example?
On reflection, I've also used it as a noun here...
I really enjoy learning new words and your nice poem. I'm again reminded there's so much more to learn from other poets, feelings, genres of poetry, words... Limitless! Thank you.
You are so right. There is a lot of good writing in this community! It is nice to be a part of it!
And thank you 🙂
Thank you for sharing the joy of a word
