napowrimo 7 - Letter in a Nutshell

Is this for a contest? Like the rest of your recent poems?

Rania, I really missed your poetry. Nobody writes like you do. There's always some sort of sadness in your writes. You use simple wording to convey a complicated feeling, and everything you say is heartfelt and true and makes me just wanna say "me too. I feel this".

"I resize my pain
in the fewest possible words"

I don't know why, but this line just stood out to me. You made this thought original. You're creative.

Going to check the rest!

I LOVE how much you're sharing and posting (yay for NaPoWriMo!)

It's beautiful seeing where your mind goes and some of these poems and verses catch me off guard, the phrasing is so unique.

"I resize my pain
in the fewest possible words,"

- The most poignant lines for me. So articulate.

I felt the warmth in this piece, the yearning for summer, yet also the hiding away, the isolation, the waiting out of it all.

It made me think of hibernation, a twinge of sadness to it though, and how you will come back and discover your words and thoughts are whole again. On solid ground. Thawed out.

Lovely!

Wow, this is really creative, I love the idea of this being a letter and how direct and straight to the point you are. Painting stark images yet leaving a sliver of hope in the ending line 'see you in summer'. This poem is testament to your mastery of story-telling!
