It’s been awhile since I have written anything for Three Word Wednesday and this is very late, even for me but here goes.
Also for AllPoetry contest Janis Ian “In The Winter”
Three Word Wednesday Prompt: Absolve, Hiss, Ridicule
The hiss of the teakettle
the tick of the clock
I carefully place the teabag
in the cup
and wait
through the window
dim winter light
sneaks through
and ridicules the midnight
in my heart
Chance meeting
polite inquiry
absolves you
and I cover myself
in cotton quilts
and wait
Of this is too good.. I loved it..
–Someone Is Special–
thank you 🙂
I like the mood you created in this with dim winter light, midnight, and being covered in cotton quilts. Really nice.
Thank you!
I can see, hear and feel all that’s going on in this. Great stuff, Dee (and welcome back).
Oh thanks Thom – I’ll try to do better. Been a crazy school year so far and offline life has put demands…
love this, Dee! wonderful moment you paint here with words.
thanks 🙂
I hope the wait harvested many rewards! Another poem full of warmth and faith in life..Jae 🙂
