A poem for the season

The latest issue of Stone Soup magazine features a lovely, evocative poem by former OWS student, Aliya Schenck!

Winter

Winter
Carrying
the crimson
toboggan up the
mountain of snow and
ice. An extreme amount of
work only for the thriller one
second slide of joy, spraying snow up
in the air behind you, screaming with delight
or terror, you don’t know which and you unexpectedly
are slowing down. Your ride runs out, and it is soon over.

Bravo, Aliya!
