Through snow, a blanket, protrudes
Grass, the coming spring
Another year without your
Footsteps, imprints
Another conversation without
Your knowing smile

I can relate to this very much and I always appreciate people who can convey such deep emotion through so few words. Thank you for entering.

So much said in such a concise way, but incisive, penetrative and emotive.Conveys a depth of sadness so many will relate to. An absolute gem sir Rich :-)
Pulls at the ole heartstrings.
Enjoyed immensely.

Life across the pond is good Rich, how about that side of the Atlantic?

such a great poem Rich. The snow giving way to another season, the footsteps missing yet another year - the conversations one could have had if the other person were not gone for so long.
Great metaphorical references in this. Such a succinct poem that shows us so much.
