mountains
wear cotton petticoats
dotted with lace eyelets

hills
glisten with sheets
of frosty dew

the fabric
of our lives
chilled
as with spray-on snow

its power of suggestion
invites seeking
the glow of hearth
the glimmer
of a candle’s invitation
the convention
of fellowship
to ease
winter’s hold
winter’s cold

unsurpassed warmth
held within
friendship

Whether on the shoal or on the shore,
I'll seek the lighthouse evermore.

great imagery

in the end it's not just you with your memories and your scars, fall on me if you ever forget how beautiful you are.
