Togetherness is a wonderful and safe way to beat of the cold, an excellent follow up of June's 5-7-5 renga, and addition to the book, very well written and presented****kahpot

Gypsy,

Nice follow-up to June's Renga post.

Do like the northern lights image and the way you contrasted 'winter' and 'warm memories,' I can imagine them cuddling and
sharing a hot cocoa in front of the fireplace.

Gypsy,
Yours is a nice poem about winter. This is an excellent follow-up of June's poem.
The top photo is hauntingly beautiful; the bottom one, of the auroras, is the bright light of winter. (They're one of the nice things about Spring. Christmas is the other.
Good luck to the writers of your book,
Best wishes,
Cindy

I like the presentation and consistent theme of this Renga poem and I think having a clear reference of the preceding Renga was clever. Thank for posting this beautiful poem.

Love the contrast between the chill of the weather outside and the warmth of the memories inside. Excellent imagery of the knocking on the door, evoking winter's intrusiveness. Thanks for sharing, Gypsy. Debbie

This is a fun thread that has been coursing through this Renga book - the cold outside and the warmth inside of love and warm memories. Another great 7-7 for the book!

    Yes, June and I are going to steer the renga to spring soon. I thought we were already in winter but it doesn't start until December 21st.

    Thank you very much, big sister😊

    Love,
