Winter's Leave the wind is howling on the plains readying to welcome spring again but first we need to go past dreary leave winter lone, weak and weary howl o wind, and set to shriek winsome, lonesome days so bleak blow and bellow and rage so on one looks forward to morning's dawn I shall miss the light of crystal in the bright of winter's ice but I shall revel in the systole of pure nature being enticed to break and beckon and be free to lift, then hearten, perhaps weaken me to think that spring has come again and leave imaginings to a when could blue of bird song's once on high could red of wing lift to the sky would sun bring on a gleam of green and cloud in sky bring forth a dream would daisy white wait to be plucked and snow on mountain then be sucked by bee or bird, or butterfly bright all later scenes blessed by star's night would come but one to share the sight when one is one, blessed by sun's light to share the rare, this gracious gleam to gain the give, in lovesome's dream [This message has been edited by Sunshine (edited 03-16-2001).] |

"to gain the give" Oh I like that so very much spring rushes in as winter beguiles its own name the circle of life the seasons proclaim always "Be your own hero. Save your interior landscape. As in all mythos the blight can be defeated and the land turned back to freedom and fertility. |

What a wonderful way to write it Karilea...so many well composed lines to carry the mood across to the reader......... "could blue of bird song's once on high could red of wing lift to the sky would sun bring on a gleam of green and cloud in sky bring forth a dream would daisy white wait to be plucked and snow on mountain then be sucked by bee or bird, or butterfly bright all later scenes blessed by star's night" captivating! The poet is like a cocoon; in him the caterpillar of the past finds rest, and from him the butterfly of the future emerges. |
