Evening sun shines pale yellow, milky Slips behind clouds, silver silky Mountains remain hidden, day is done Stillness reigns with the setting sun. Trees now stark silhouettes of black Snow blankets rivers, ice intact Winter cold nearing a bitter end With light of spring, new life to lend Deciduous trees, costumes of green Sturdy conifers nestled in between Fireweeds, roses and bluebells, blue Arctic painting in vibrant, colored hues Winter, summer, autumn and spring Wonders of life each day brings Presents from the Creator’s hands Miracles of life dot a miraculous land. Evening sun shines pale yellow, milky Slips behind clouds, silver silky Moon hangs low over darkness deep Silence sings in a land that sleeps. ... Alison |

Alison, This is good work. The poem is well organized, and good use is made of end rhymes. It's also not forced. I like it loads. Bobby |

"Miracles of life dot a miraculous land. How true, Alison, but some people just cannot see because they perhaps are "sleeping". Always enjoy your words - thank you. Helen |

Dear Ali. ... and did you know that, through your knowing and enchanted eyes, the x-ray vision that allows you to perceive that, under the ice, an explosion of riotous life will soon awaken, beneath the ice, where others might see nothing but a frozen, desolate waistband ... do you know you bring vistas and landscapes I will never know in person? ... and do you know that, by the means of magical transport, you take me not just into your world, but into the chambers of your inner life (on Pip)? I wish I could reveal like that ... that I could pleaded: Please, PLEASE touch me ... Please, dance with me ... The way you do ... And knowing it's okay to say that ... and not get rejected or misunderstood! Love Jaime Why get up if you don't have to? |
