distant in this cold
bristling west wind
damp chill
to the bone
night
in this valley of
refugees from
the sun
where
i am left
wondering
why
i didn’t
make soup
creamy
zucchini with
herbs home filling
fragrance
floating on air
with broken
crust of bread
warm
buttered
A LITTLE SOMETHIN'

I wanted to still comment although you've moved on to another post. I love the tripping of the words over each other and the soup and bread imagery that warms me just by reading it.
okay … time for some supper!
Make the soup anyway. Nice One Shot, Nance!
Nice – loved the flow of imagery.
Hoping you all stayed safe in the recent storms and power outages. We always bake 'taters, cook rice, fill water containers, and set out candles when the winds take to howling.Blessings.
You warmed me up!
There's nothing like the aroma of homemade soup or baking bread on a cold damp day. Very nice.
Enjoyed this. Good one!
I love the contrast of the cold and damp outside to the warm and tasty insideNicely done for One shotMDW
wellwell it sounds delicious warm and inviting…
From the gneral terrain of the valley rightinto the hearth,seeking warmth,seeking home.
Nothing like soup to warm cold bones! I could feel the chill in this. And now I want soup with crusty bread! :)
