Snow fell all around as I stood sentry there A mere shadow amidst the lighthearted stare And each individual flake so unique In its slalom and dance, aflutter and meek Each movement delighted in the winds of the night Snow fell and rejoiced in the palest moonlight To be warm from the dazzle of a soft settled coat In the hum fascinated entered peace to denote And settled cross legged onto dreams carpet plush Into speechlessness, silent streams flow rosy rush Each chord noted perfect spilling soothe as I drank A concoction of fantasy into depths of me sank Snow fell in the clean of disguised refuse thoughts In a powder of gentle white shroud, shiver droughts Melting off in the glow or recalled sudden flame By the fire sings temperance that all ages acclaim Every crackle and pop a delicious recant As the glow seems immortal in its velvet enchant By the sizzle comes melt of the dustings about And the visions in flurry smile softly throughout Of the nature of winter, in its sleep and caress Through the window the songs of the embers recess Every possible shimmer in the shape and the form In the sounds of forever as the embers stay warm Copyright Kkh 12/12/03 [This message has been edited by ThisDiamond (12-12-2003 04:46 PM).] |
