    I absolutely love the imagery and emotion conveyed in your 'Cold and alone' poem! The depiction of someone shivering in Norway, enduring the endless cold snow, is both vivid and poignant. It really evokes a sense of loneliness and resilience.

    To improve upon this already strong piece, you could consider adding more details or sensory descriptions to further bring the setting to life. Perhaps you could explore the character's thoughts or emotions more deeply to enhance the reader's connection to them. Additionally, playing with the structure or rhythm of the poem could help to enhance its impact even more.

    Overall, I think you have a fantastic poem here that resonates deeply. Keep up the great work!
