This is just lovely, definitely fits in with Warrior Wednesday, I love the Snow Queen and this is a PERFECT rendition of that story rendered in poetic fashion. If only we had a Poetry day in the week, for poems like this.

I am delighted you like it! There is a definite interest in poetry here, what a good idea to have a day for it! Thank you for commenting 🥰🙏🏼

I was happy to comment, it was moving. Honestly I feel this way, as though I were a ‘Frost-Man’ of sorts until I met my gf who melted all the ice and lonely frost about my heart and turned it to Spring. I really do adore her.

As to a day for poetry let me see, maybe something like ‘Sing-Song Sunday’? Or ‘Solar Sunday’ as in poetry is like the sun (I know random thinking). Or Singing Sunday. I’m only thinking Sunday because there isn’t a themed day that’s really stuck for that day.

You are such a sweet romantic!! I love it 😊😊 I do like the idea of Sunday but isn’t it Funny Sunday” now? I really value humor in writing but I find it is often (for me) interwoven in a more serious piece and so does not feel like a good fit to submit for Funny Sunday…wonder if others feel the same as I don’t see too many posts submitted with the express purpose of being humorous BUT I do find much wonderful humor tucked into political satire and all other genres. Who hosts Funny Sunday?

Oh that would be Addam or 'Cedar Flyte' he's brilliant, good point I forgot about Funny Sunday, it's a fantastic event.

Hmm, maybe another day then? There's Tuesday? But what term could we use?

Tough one… Muse Day- yet, prose is just as “musey” driven haha. Troubadour Tuesday- but this alludes to the poetry being mostly of a romantic sort of fantasy or medieval type - though I kind of like it because it feels like the ild shakespearean traveling poet who regales the masses with his rhymes 😂😊

Troubadour Tuesday…. that’s an AWESOME idea, ouah! Cool!

Do you want to host it? Or would you prefer another do it?

I would be a bad host unfortunately- I am pulled in so many directions I barely find time to do my every Sunday post which I have promised myself! Definitely would love to see someone else run with it. These last 2 poems are fledgling efforts to contribute to the “shorts” and I could probably be a fairly regular contributor to a troubadour tuesday - would enjoy the poetry having a dedicated day!

Okay, hmm I might know 2 people who could do it. Mind if I ask them?

I like the line about ice being like a candle

I’d never thought of it that way before.
