You were kicking muddy dimples
into her bleached cheek as she slept,
while I just rested against her and tried tasting ice.

(We must be all warm inside, because those baby clouds
keep curling up and dozing in our lungs.)

For the AFC Winter Postcard Contest.

Having been born in the heart of Winter, I've always held a great affection and respect for the old girl.

Congratulations for the placement in the contest. I like the approach and atmosphere of this poem. Even having the ending in parentheses works well and I love the image in it.

Thank you very much. I was trying to go for a kind of 'snapshot' feel to it, just a brief moment frozen (excuse the pun!)

Hopefully it comes across that way. :)
