This is so incredible. You have made fall a different time for me but more than that you have identified the feeling of not being validated, being ignored, lost in one's own word posited to be there regardless. This is so wonderful. Do you mind if I borrow it to read to a woman's group? I will certainly not take credit but give it to you. It shows the heart of women often even in a good place...

Love these opening lines and "watching a tree undress"...almost as if you could bare your soul.

Re: Excellent Malcolm; I am thinking that you would make a good tree
solid protective, artistic; so that you can arrange your branches nicely, welcoming, and able to bend a little with the winds of change.

Excellent
I've often thought of becoming a tree myself.

First to comment is always tricky Simone, but I think this one time when you felt like you could be as unfeeling or as feeling as a tree in winter, but you could not get rid of the desire to blossom again. Nice poem interesting.
