    Brilliant Mark! I love the imagery in the 3rd stanza of a man, frozen by ice, clutching the flowers ... dead most likely, but happy to know his Marie would have married him :-) x

    okay, so I here I am singing, "Edelweiss"
    I like this romantic poem. based on the 'sound of music' each verse building in imagery and intensity. I also like your use of the word "edelweiss" as a refrain - lovely and sweet.

    Yes, I love this poem like everyone else seems to - it really is 'pure' poetry, whatever that is...

    Take care, Mark

    The first thing that popped into my mind when I read the title
    was the movie Sound of Music...love that movie and this write has
    all the warm and smiles of love. Liked how you mixed Edelweiss
    with your feelings and providing a lovely scenery...nice work!
