    Micropoetry, mean anything?

    Discussion in 'The Craft of Writing Poetry' started by Stammis, Jul 9, 2017.

    For instance: is this just a selection of pretty words or does it mean anything to you?

    I can figure out the "glace" part (thank you, high school French class) but the unclear antecedent for "its" is tricky. Technically it refers back to the gale... was that the intended meaning?
