We all feel the need for warmth and comfort. I feel the yearning in your writing. Loved it

I could easily follow the search for warmth. Glad you made your first post, hope there'll be more soon.

This is great Jaro, so glad you took the plunge!

Someone pass me a jacket. The desire for warmth comes out loud and clear.

I dislike that time of year, I think it teases too much, and your poems--a tease for more. Which means you now have to get busy. Nice work.

This is really good. Clear and compact and precise with so many suggested resonances. You should definitely post some more. Hopefully GA can give you some of the warmth you are missing.

I really liked this - and I don't usually read poetry on here.

It conveyed a feeling that seems all too familiar to me.

I've read your profile and you've got an interesting story. I hope to read more of you on here!

Hey my new friend! Well done.

Yearning, sighing, starving

Pining, dying, craving

Freezing, chasing, longing,

Yielding,

Feeling,

Rest

I feel this as the winter sets in. I'm confused as to whether to turn the pilot lights on on my furnace and use propane or just wait.

Right now, I'm waiting until your poem made me think about it. Thanks

This certainly gives a complete picture. I can relate to that frustrating feel of winter, particularly with those lines: ‘Hibernation once again’ and ‘freedom from jacket restraint’. Great descriptions and nicely put together.
