All Comments on 'Blemish'

why 'in the chaste snow' rather than 'on chaste snow'? is it to say the bird's up in snowy branches rather than on the ground? only wondering, as i saw the image of the drop of blood as being on the snow.

And it could be perfect description. If you were in a different frame of mind would you have still seen it as a blemish? Could the snow then be a perfect backdrop for a beautiful spot of life? Huh. Sorry - don't know where I am going with that. Beautiful poem, 5'd
