Amongst a sea of snow,
Arise many islands of stone,
A girl of looks so young,
Whose soul is eternally old.
Pining the days that have gone,
When the wind was less bittersweet,
The sun was warm on her face,
Yet those days are far away.
So she waits upon her island,
An eternal beauty, never changing.

Good write here
I like the verse a girl that looks so young
whose soul is eternally old
yet the whole poem is very good indeed

Thank you
You found my weakness when it comes to writing poetry.
I tend to type to fast to notice my grammer or spelling it tends to switch to autonomous controls
