Bare Winter

Wrapped tight in my sweater, I feel the chill creep,

sharp air against skin, waking dreams from their sleep.

The collarbone bare, a point of exposure,

as winter breathes heavy, life feels much closer.


Windows fogged over, memories blend,

with every sharp breath, a longing to mend.

Each shiver, a reminder of warmth left behind,

as the frost dances lightly, the heart intertwined.

I’m a freelance artist with 3 years of experience, and I create visual artwork that can work as an extension of written poetry. I’d love to create something for one of your poems — perhaps an illustration for a particular stanza, a full poem visual, or a scene inspired by its meaning. We can start with a small paid commission rather than a large project, and you can decide afterward if you'd like to continue. If you're interested, I’d love to share my portfolio.
