Weightless

From the chair I stand but tumble back outside the snowflakes at the glass hover windless weightless my knees buckle at their suspended beauty ____________________

Feed me

Feed my winter heart, my famished, desperate eyes - pour sunlight on the snow and brew my spirits' rise. ____________________

Chill wind blows me right to your door. Open your arms, bundle me inside. ____________________

Frigid midnight

Frigid midnight: shooting star. At dawn the back deck sparkles. ____________________

Hello, friends. I’m Ellen, and I’m glad you’ve joined me. I share writing here, mostly by me, sometimes by others. Check the sidebars for publication news and tweets about my novel-in-progress. When I’m not sitting in the corner of the sofa writing, I’m riding horses, keeping honey bees, or playing with the cat. I love to hear from you, so please drop a comment or send me a line.
