Water’s souciant song
White as the snow still falling
Nature’s whisper: shhhhhhhh
Tag: winter
Yesterday’s Sun
A blanket of newness
Illuminated by the glow
Soon to become
Yesterday’s sun
Grace through the Rubble
I make my way
Down channeled paths
Wending through
Hardship and trouble
To overcome
My flow adjusts
Weaves a line
Ofttimes turbulent
While rocks and stumps
Which interfere
I push aside
With force of will determinant
And rest I may
In respite of pools and lakes
To carry on with grace aplomb
Through demise and rubble
Lavender on Broken Glass
Soft and sharp
Lavender petals fall
On broken glass
So is the acceptance
Of our sad reckoning
Embraced in tears
Upon the Sigh
Dawn already
Come and gone
First sun reflects
From wintry throne
Beneath the glow
Of cloudless sky
I hold my grief
In chill repose
The magic light
Has challenged woes
Soon comes the smile
Upon the sigh
Chill ~ Pic and a Word Challenge #295
On a crisp December day
Atop an inverted sky
Snowy clouds
Blown across the ice
Thighs itch
From penetrating chill
A wan sun
Does nothing to warm
A few moments here
To record the scene
Then retreat
To the warmth
Of electric fire
A sugary cup
Of cocoa
And family
Frozen Home
Curled up
In my armchair
Of ice and snow
Cozy and warm
In a place I adore
In my armchair
Of ice and snow
Cozy and warm
In a place I adore
Gentle current
Beneath the ice
Downstream rumbles
Break the crust
And I am freed
Freezing ~ Pic and a Word Challenge #262
The freeze is coming
Soon will river ice over
You below the ice
Soon will river ice over
You below the ice
The freeze is coming
Soon will river ice over
You below the ice
Soon will river ice over
You below the ice
Moonglow
A promise of possibility coming
Here the night made bright
Though by no small trickery
And patience
Here the night made bright
Though by no small trickery
And patience
Moonglow breaks the darkness
While the stars take flight
In the cool blue of winter chill
But for the warmth of amber hearths
Winter Capture
Wind and whitecaps swish about
Sounds as crisp as winter air
My near frostbitten ears select
Imagine gentle warmth
In sunlight’s amber hue detect
Sounds as crisp as winter air
My near frostbitten ears select
Imagine gentle warmth
In sunlight’s amber hue detect
I linger here
Instead the heated hearth of home
Frigid fingers upon my camera work
Until chill moment captured thus
By an eye that cannot shirk
