footprints in the snow
heading off into nowhere
bring cold weather blues
This senryū is my response to Come Sing With Me!, the prompt from Lillian at dVerse ~ Poets Pub, which is to use at least two song titles from a list of sixteen.
Footprints in the Snow (Bill Monroe)
Cold Weather Blues (Muddy Waters)

I relate to this … walked a winter trial not long ago and was tempted to follow the animal tracks…

Thank you. I know that when I see animal tracks in the snow out in the wild it reminds me that I’m not really alone.
