Wonderful piece! Also, a truly great way to take a moment to yourself.
I have no SPAG critique to offer. That picture is beautiful as well.
Thank you for sharing, and good luck in the contest.

I really like this poem as you put us there in those wintry woods with the Speaker, trodding slowly, enjoying each breath. The imagery of each stanza stands out! Rod

Comment from June Sargent
I thoroughly enjoyed your journey in search of solitude. You've painted with words a picture of tranquility - one that invited our senses to experience what you experienced: the sound of rustling leaves, the feel of the cool breeze, the scent of fresh air, the sight of naked branches. Well done!

The woods is certainly a popular spot to re-engage with nature and feel the cleansing breeze blowing away the busyness and stress of the workaday world. Thanks for the share.

Comment from kiwisteveh
Well I'd like to say that this was a lovely poem, which it is except for the unsettling lines...
while I walk in woe
one final time.
... which seem to hint that the walk in the woods will end with a suicide. I hope I've got that wrong.
Great use of imagery to convey the beauty and peacefulness of your surroundings.
Good luck in the contest.

Thank you, Steve. That certainly wasn't my intention, though I can understand how it could seem that way. I've since revised. Thank you, again!
