In the midst of...

in the midst of autumn,
we lie here in prayer,
seeking instant gratification
we believe to be our right

in the midst of winter,
we have an electric frost,
keeping you at bay,
just outside the safety zone
(comfort will not be compromised)

in the midst of spring we dare to feel love,
dare to breathe flowers and sunshine,
and all the hope that is implied

and we lie bare for summer's love
sweet fornication that rejuvenates,
repressing the despair that threatened us

with eternal winters...

    Interesting

    Your writing style is interesting. I am impressed with how well you managed the flow, and we all have typos, so there isn't anything wrong with that. Fix it though

    All in all, a great poem. Keep writing!

    pretty, nice, pretty nice

    Not sure if "temped" is a word?
    The three-line stanza seems too separate from the rest in tone, word choice-maybe use simpler, shorter words.
    Also (and this is a completely weird, picky, personal preference thing) I don't (usually) go for ellipses at the end of poems. It's done pretty nicely here, though.

    Great job! A sweet, short read.
