This poem symbolizes my struggle through the winter and the hope for the spring to come. Please comment. Thanks :) [bodytext] => Skeleton hands;
reaching for the sky,
begging for the spring.

Creaking joints;
that rustle in the wind,
that cackle after me.

Barren and bare;
fruit have all fallen,
buried and covered
under layers of purity
and innocence,
nestled deep below
the ever growing snow.

Wrap your hands around mine,
let me be the fruit to your snow.

Winter Fruit

Skeleton hands;
reaching for the sky,
begging for the spring.

Creaking joints;
that rustle in the wind,
that cackle after me.

Barren and bare;
fruit have all fallen,
buried and covered
under layers of purity
and innocence,
nestled deep below
the ever growing snow.

Wrap your hands around mine,
let me be the fruit to your snow.

Very vivid imagery.

"Creaking joints;
that rustle in the wind,
that cackle after me."

This (above) is inspiration at its finest.

I really like the imagery and the analogy between the nature and the hope for love from someone cold without it.

Nicely done.

Thank you for an enjoyable read.
