                 Winter's Eve

The star-swept Winter evening
settles down along this forest way
amid whispers of the wilderness,
in a confusion of moonlit shadows
and a thousand unfinished dreams,
over deep, pure-frost emptiness
under the vast-eternal, flawless sky
as if this moment could stand forever,
just outside of time, in an endless
   mystic déjàvu.

This is surreal in it's quiet beauty, the mystic déjàvu is magical and such a lovely ending.

Always my pleasure, dreampoet~

This is truly lovely; where I'm at, we don't see many scenes such as these. You painted a perfect picture.

Because of this poem a magical moment is frozen in time...like the precious jewel it is.

You let it all out with the exploration of . . . "in a confusion of moonlit shadows / and a thousand unfinished dreams," and gave us reason to believe in "in a confusion of moonlit shadows / and a thousand unfinished dreams,."

I quite enjoyed this.

Bruce,

There is often an ethereal beauty to winter and I think you captured that with this poem. Loved it.
