The path to my door,
shone
neath moonlight dreary.
iced diamonds
sparkled before eyes
so weary.
As I waited with a temperate
mind
locked behind
these eyes Oh! so blue.

Chilling winds cut
through my skin
like blades.
As I stared out the
open door
amazed.
At the figure approaching
through a
veil of snow.
I should go
to him, Oh! pray not a mirage.

I take flight
through the night
of cascading snow.
Gliding oer drifts
so high
I do go
into his arms
held fast
at last
And rapture, it's mine once again.

Lips finding mine
and in time
we do dance
across fields of
white light
melting from our
romance
two figures sublime
locked in time
in the snow.
'Twas such a far way to go.

You have framed this poem really well, just like the imagery is framed inside the poem . Really works, I enjoyed it ... neigh - Loved it ! I especially liked the way you put the charectures into the background perfectly .
Thanx .

SEA, and angelswing, thank you for the words. I kind of liked this one myself!! It was inspired by the 7 inches of snow that fell on us this afternoon! I really hate snow!!!! Thanks again, Sandi
