1
late autumn
crowing ravens
darken the backyard
2
piercing wind
on my window sills
dried boxelder bugs
3
in the stillness
winding up the hill
the fresh prints
4
cold night, in the
humming of the furnace
garage door’s screech
5
in the darkness
computer screen blinks
with twinkling stars
6
winter morning
the car’s headlight -
the first light of daybreak
7
missing the stop sign
missing the stop
police car’s behind
8
come to a halt
I run one way
the deer the other
9
after the girl left
a feeling of lost
creeps in
10
record low-
this cold
even in my bosom

I like 4, 6 most.
It is a creative way to record our life like this. _________________

Oddly enough, these verses remind me of Edgar Allan Poe’s 1845 narrative poem entitled The Raven, which depicts a mysterious talking raven's midnight visit to a distraught narrator lamenting the loss of his love, Lenore. The raven, sitting on a bust of Pallas, constantly repeats, "Nevermore." _________________ Time is nothing but a disquiet of the soul |

Surprisingly enough, these verses reminded you of Poe's The Raven. Honestly, I haven't read it yet but will find time to read.
I, too, like these three more. Been trying to reflect the 'ah' moment in one breath.
Thanks for your read and comment! |

Is this the first sign of a slow descent into depression? _________________ Don't imitate me;

I like verses 4 and 5 the most.

By the way, a feeling of lost, or a feeling of being lost, or a feeling of lost hope? _________________ I'm Champagne,

Don't know what sign it is, but it is the first incident in the new year. |

A feeling of being lost is grammatically correct. Thanks. |

I like verse 10 the most.
Record low -
this cold
hitting me hard
The city I live in was hit two days ago with 30 cm of snow.
I wish I had a "body of winter." _________________ I came, I saw, and I conquered |

Thanks haha. Which city are you from? I see you using 'cm' not 'in', I can never figure out the equation of these two measurements.
I wrote another one in an effort to replace #8. See if you like it.
winter sun
brighter than summer
spring in icicle drips
It is clear that different people have different tastes. They are here to be picked.
