Beyond me; Anticipation of the glittering white As if to play in video within my thoughts So joyously chocolate paws in powdered sugar And engines roar beneath you just ahead The cold comes, and it will not cease I look upon ice sculptures in the leaves Hanging like bangles from the trees My shadow lengthens toward the afternoon The quiet is welcome and endless across the meadow Deer stand along the edges of shy, finding sparse graze Meeting my gaze My fingers are cold...it's not the same sky Perhaps the day has found itself so shy Just cabin fever... Yearning for the fireplace, thinking of a certain face Time could pass away, forgetting the abandoned path The colors that have walked us...just as emotions talked us through the curves The smell of pine is pretty in the new snow, clean Undiscovered without print, the winds blow My heart beats in the rhythms of extraordinary things Dreams that reoccur with silver wings The sweeping up to unbound joy, rummaging the everlast without a practiced ploy Walking toward the warm to settle differences, Spiriting with pure intention truly gold The tongue and groove that builds this home still sweet once cut and polished The steps are just as warm, And would you, I sit down And remember how I love you.

I look upon ice sculptures in the leaves Hanging like bangles from the trees My shadow lengthens toward the afternoon The quiet is welcome and endless across the meadow Deer stand along the edges so pretty, as much as i dread its coming, too soon, too soon |

Time could pass away, forgetting the abandoned path The colors that have walked us...just as emotions talked us through the curves The smell of pine is pretty in the new snow, clean Undiscovered without print, the winds blow ~*~ I found this passage extremely welcoming even if the winds blow, and the snowflakes swirl Thank you, Kathleen. |
