I like this very much. You need a plural verb in the first line, second
stanza. It should be "mud and winter grip." I would leave off the word side
in
that stanza and change cling to clinging (this for grammatical reasons).
Your
river poems are so vivid, and I am fond of this series. Sue
Sue, grammar, sigh!
I want to keep side for the sound and image. A side porch means something
different than others.
Clinging -- shudder. So close to All Saints Eve?
Smiles and thanks.
