Make It Clear
Today I’ll wish upon a star
To understand just “Where you are”
That doesn’t speak of where you stand
But where’s your mind at, what’s your brand
I’m at a loss for what to do
What it may take to impress you
The reason I don’t go for broke
That “Walk of shame,” it ain’t no joke
I’m not as sharp as I appear
So let me make it crystal clear
Down deep inside, is there a “We”
A special spot reserved for me
Try looking in your heart of hearts
The rumor is, that’s how it starts
I promise you, I ain’t that bad
And probably the best you’ve had

The Ritual of Winter Challenge Winners
Welcome to the Winners Announcement for The Ritual of Winter challenge. This prompt focused on winter rituals and the meaning that settles into them over time. The top pieces stay grounded in ordinary acts and repeated routines, letting winter shape the work through pace, attention, and restraint.

I wouldn't wait around if your love isn't seen. Your poetry was very keen:)
Don't know if I should laugh or cry for him...tell me, does he convince her?
