[hometext] => I miss the winter...
[bodytext] => I miss the last december,
With its cooling touch of snow,
The way my fingers tingled,
When the slightest wind would blow.
How the stars were always brightest,
In the clear midwinter sky,
And Jack frost would dance between them,
Bidding fall goodbye.
Then the dewed grass in the morning,
Would shine like silver glitter,
And spider webs would sparkle,
Making the chill there seem less bitter.
But the wind would continue blowing,
Carrying icy sting,
While the leafless trees would whisper,
Of the rumours of the spring.
I miss the last december,
With the robin red and brown,
But it helps me just to remember,
When I am feeling down.
Then I can see the holly brightly,
Under sky that threatened snow,
And I am carried off by memories,
In the frozen wind it blows.

OH mY pHIL this is simply excellent poetry.
I too miss the winter, but not for long, in Wyoming it's rarely gone! *smiles* This whole poem reminded me of the early mornings I get up about 5:30, sometimes 4:00 a.m. to let them out. There's something so special about the early morning snow. Freshly fallen........untouched, like a blanket or scarf over the yard and trees!
I loved this poem
Warm Love
consue
And thank you dear for all your nice comments on my poems.
I appreciate them. |

| Oh, I loved this piece! Winter is my absoulte favorite time of the year, so the title caught me right there, lol. I love the attention you paid to the rhyme scheme and general flow of the poem, which is always a treat. The diction was also something to be admired too. I love the rhymes here, especially that of the end of the first stanza, the amount of syllables to be found in those three words that tied together each thought in there, it was really amazing. Excellent work, Phil. |

I like this, kind of whispy and dreamy. Thoughts come on the wind, which helps give movement and imagery to the poem.
Well done, a pleasant read. Reminds me of when we lived in International Falls, MN. Up there what you didn't cover up froze up!

That was awesome. I think the ending was definitely my favorite...
how despite certain things, there is always something you can look
at and remember and it can help.
I loved this.

Beautiful! This was truly elegant and poetic, especially the first stanza. The very opening draws one in.
I too miss the winter, and it calls up a lot of memories for me as well. I'm not sure why it does, specifically. But this poem was a welcome read, and truly well done. Bravo!
