Thoughts in Winter

Winter possesses its own special beauty and holds a place in the hearts of many. While it may not possess the hope that comes with spring, the warmth of summer, or the fading grandeur of fall, it still deserves a special mention because of its ability to inspire and hold us in awe of its icy grasp. This book of verse, Thoughts in Winter, explores this fascinating season as author Dean Krosecz weaves a mesmerizing tangle of memories from his childhood that recall the perfect first snowfalls, trees bare of leaves, ice forming intricate patterns or the howl of a ferocious storm outside his window. Amidst it all he finds room to reflect on his own life, relationships, and fears as he steadily works through the difficult months that always seem the longest, until he finds himself uplifted by the coming of spring once more and the promise that better days always lie ahead.
