    Poem Commentary

    I wrote this at work when I was on lunch and I saw a co-work staring out of the stores front window. 

    A Cold Winters Eve

    Staring out of a store window,

    On a cold winter’s eve.

    Wrapped in a world of illusion,

    Your eyes begin to stray.

    Stray on what is, or maybe what was,

    Or even what

    ever may be.

    No answers are clear,

    But the many questions are.

    So there you will sit,

    And there you will stay.

    All alone on this winter’s eve.

    Staring out of a store window

    Hoping and wishing

    That someone may pass your way.

    The sky is now darker,

    And you’re still sitting alone,

    So you get up and you stretch your legs

    You turn and walk slowly away,

    On this cold winter’s eve.

    Thank you connsk8. I just saw here and I felt what I thought was pain coming from her. She looked alone and sad.

    In science one tries to tell people, in such a way as to be understood by everyone, something that no one ever knew before. But in poetry, it's the exact opposite.
