Winter lays out a shimmering
Ivory coverlet
over land & rooftops
transforming
sleeping trees into
crystaline sculptures
skies gently cleansed
as it weeps silvery white
tears from heaven
catching upon lashes
& noses
painting cheeks
the color of roses
footsteps made catlike
as one "tip-toes" through
this winter wonderland
From  my  window
I watch as nature's
beautiful painting unfolds,
& think of you...

Ah Tier...I love snow and making snow angels and walking at night and listening to it crunch under my feet.  Thank you for this one.  ~Nancy~

~I've loved you forever, in lifetimes before.~

Yeah, you make it sound all beautiful and romantic...but it's still winter and snow.  Hate winter, love your poem.

Thank you, Duncan, *chuckles*  Maybe I should continue to write about romantic winters to help you get through it! *wink*

*sigh* oh yes, the magic of winter. Even though I do not like the cold I do love the fact that there is an excuse to do lots of cuddling. I love this poem. It is very much a feel good poem.

Love I leave with you whether it is in your life now or yet the essense of your dreams.
