Ancient unforgiving tree,
O would that your boughs could bend
for the lowly likes of me
Still; unyielding be
Pearls to swine ye never lend,
ancient unforgiving tree
Eyes unclouded see
Fraying blindfold, ever mend
for the lowly likes of me
Mythic tragedy
One more Hero's Journey penned,
ancient unforgiving tree
Pay the boatman's fee
Once more 'round the river bend
for the lowly likes of me
Sweet purgatory
Sentenced to your garden tend,
ancient unforgiving tree,
for the lowly likes of me.

Cabin Fever Because of Snow, Sleet, and Freezing Rain That Turned to Icy Roads
What Is Cabin Fever? The short answer is that cabin fever is restlessness from being in a confined area. Cabin fever is the distressing irritability or restlessness experienced when a person or group is stuck at an isolated location or in confined quarters for an extended time. Research shows that prolonged cold, gray skies, and being stuck indoors can trigger mood shifts similar to “winter blues.”

I never knew of Tarkovsky, but he sounds fascinating to have died so young-ish. I learned something new. Great ode to him. I think.
I like Tarkovsky, too. 😉
This was so hauntingly beautiful! Loved your Villanelle!
