Shadows trail the horizon,
faint shades of gray tinged with a touch of blue
glow in the aftermath of beaming ivory -
shimmering through.

Underneath clouded wintry shade,
a hilltop sits silent -
awaiting rain.

Muffled bird calls,
scampering deer feet,
rustling shade trees,
fall motionless -

as the grove enfolds itself
in the temperate covering
of winter.

This is beautiful Kim, and a re-read of it gave me quite calm, and gentle graced the scene...

It does more than make me want it be there -- it actually puts me there.

an ocean of you,
what if I told you,
what if I said
that I love you
do we dare cross
that line between your
heart and mine~

KimW - I believe this is the first poem I've read of yours. I like it very much, the imagery is very vivid and alive, almost like I'm there...

Whoa! I disappear for a day to do mundane daily chores and I come back to find these replies - Thank you!!

I think what I enjoy more than the fact that anyone is reading, is getting to see a little of each of you through your replies.
