wordancer's challenge set me off this morning.. thank you master of words.. ____________________________________________________ Wrapped in the arms of high winter's embrace chill winds seep into that soft hidden place, frost covered thoughts churn beneath the thin mist, grey snow laden clouds dip to ground to be kissed, blue crystal waters run free in the stream, icy fingers from dark branches do gleam, on drift covered hill a silhouette stood, faceless in shadow neath wide flaring hood, daylight waned slowly, gave way with a sigh, the figure faced east toward darkening sky, thoughts rambled free in the cold heavy air, drifting in patterns not seen but still there, suspension of life he holds in his gaze, as cold bitter nights replace frozen days, he longs for the spring, rebirth of the land, the sweet smelling earth to sift through his hand, of flowers and clover, wheat golden and tall, the sun shining down and warming it all, in time it will come, for nature is wise, he waits patiently for winter’s demise. < !signature--> the woods are lovely, dark, and deep, but I have promises to keep, and many miles to go before I sleep...Frost [This message has been edited by pegasus111 (edited 01-16-2001).] |

in time it will come, for nature is wise, he waits patiently for winter’s demise. **************** This is very nicely written, Pegasus. Perhaps the patience is aided by the beauty in the winter you described in your opening lines. Indeed,nature is wise in giving us a variety of seasons, is she not?

This is exquisitely done! This spring will be appreciared even more, since winter has been so harsh here. Ellie A friend hears the song in my heart, and sings it to me when my memory fails. |
