Russian bell: Almanac. Issue No. 4, 2019

So winter brought wind again, snow, and in some regions of our vast country - rains! Along with this, the annual problems “woke up” related to the complete unpreparedness of many by this time Oda. But creative people, poets and prose writers are easier in this regard, because the change of weather conditions always fruitfully affects the movement of poetic thought. Now they can with light sadness to remember the past summer, while at the same time in thousands of colors, coloring the first snow. If we talk about the memories, then, according to Rainer Maria Rilke, the poet in his work may well do children's impressions. And indeed, in order to express the beauty of the same first snow, you need to look at him with a clear, uncomplicated look, forgetting how unsightly this snow will become only a couple of hours, that is, in fact, remember that wonderful moment when you saw him first. It so turns out that the first impressions give us much more emotionally. Literature is stronger than other types of art, affects precisely the emotional sphere, and what could be cleaner and more beautiful than the emotions of the child! If you write a heroic poem from the life of metallurgists, then you still need some kind of knowledge of the subject, but if you take up the description of the beauty of nature, you need mostly sensations. Sitting by the window and fencing off the rest of the world, you can write wonderful lyrical poems, magical stories or fairy tales. Most of those who sooner or later decide to take up the pen begin to just with climate theme. Odges with the first snow, frosty morning, sparkling ice pour out on paper in orderly rows and march according to poetic readings. I wish you to survive the winter in the best creative form and not get bogged down in snowdrifts and off-road, still, childishly, with a smile to admire nature. Breathe deeper and look further - let the imagination not leave you.
