The Howl of Snow The thought of words have eddied between the east and west of belief as if an ocean might lie between sunrise and sunset but you do not live in a grass skirted dream and I no longer reside among the clam-diggers so here it is then, my hidden formed thoughts of you, from somewhere in the dream you left in the snow ~&~ It seems you come to me, in mid-moon, when tides are level and you leave upon the rise when Luna’s surges emerge strong And it was that other night when sky views splayed my dreams between Luna, clouds, and snowflakes and the wolf’s howling when in some oh dark light, some part of me came to the window peering into the moment of sight of pseudo footsteps towards my door ~&~ if you could have held me then when I was holding my own breath waiting for the tonal ring of love upon this porch of dream if you could have held me then you would have heard the howl of wolf. ![]() |

Lady...the sound and feel of this is so haunting, so full of longing...so beautiful. I think love itself must hear the footsteps on a night such as this. ![]() |

Ah, lady, you do this so very well.... I get the feeling that on some moon-drenched summer night, you could lie down in the grass and make snow-angels out of pure moonlight, that would stay until the morning sun melted them away. ~~(¸¸¸¸ºº> ~~(¸¸¸¸ºº> ~~(¸¸ ¸¸ºº> ~~~(¸¸ER¸¸ºº> |
