Winter has me bound hands and knees first I am a captive 60 days and still counting... My heart broken in its embrace cannot see spring’s color filled horizon My mind wanders for days without end longing for hope’s warmth and love’s touch Sleep deprived and dreams unfulfilled My tired eyes sag under the burden of heavy falling snow
He came over for a cup of tea On a cold Sunday morn This tall dark drink of coffee Our future was spelled out in my green and his earl grey(tea) A (sly)smile of seduction forming & sealing his fate shut Cookies crumbled under warm tea biscuits When our quiet eyes finally met… The unfolding story begs to be continued... *Please feel free to offer criticisms, this is a freshly baked poem...*
The tears that flowed till March were packed aside in time for spring Dainty pink flowers blooming as my cold & broken spirits soared Healing and love finding its way to me as June’s warmth appeared in you
Mother Nature releases her breath Cold and hard on heavy glass windows Reeling from her effect Window panes freeze completely Delicate white lace stitching residues Of her chilled breath As snow
You should have heard her laugh
This one part of me
Bound by God love and blood
She calls me her mummy
Tummy tickles and friend
Her silly wild and innocent laugh
Ringing loud through cold suburban towns
I bear the weighted burden of these cold days in my heart Crawling through January and December days as a shadow in white snow Peace albeit dark and sad trailing my labored and frozen steps
This season of quiet and chills Leave my thoughts empty Meaningful words scattered all over Blank screen starring back at me
Silver bells chime
As delicate snow lace falls
Santa rides high
Rudolph & co with gifts in tow
Christmas Eve lingers
Little boys and girls happily dreaming
Of treats and presents
Carols heard through the night (house)
Christmas dawn soon will be here
A merry Christmas Eve friends!!! Have a wonderful week

November framed on this heart frozen from chilly nights
Finds warmth in hot cocoa pumpkin spiced lattes
Cinnamon apple pies and sweet cider smells
Echoes of gratitude and good wishes bouncing off its walls
Lavender vanilla and autumn finding comfort in the air
