Snow
Warmth within one's heart
is precious when the snow
flakes drift into the wind -
beauty over takes the other
wise drab winter state as
the snow glistens when
stirred by the motion of
one's footsteps...

Lovely poem Rhoda. You've painted a glistening picture in words that made snow just a little more meaningful for me! However, I'm ready for spring big time after a brutal 2015 winter! Best wishes, Chris~
ReplyDeleteLet it snow, let it snow, let it snow!
ReplyDeleteChris - I am ready for Spring also, for sure!!! Thank you for the lovely comment...Rhoda
ReplyDeleteLOL Danny - The past two years here on Long Island it has snowed and snowed again! Finally we can see the ground after all Winter holding 2+ feet of the white stuff...Rhoda
ReplyDeleteRhoda, what a wonderful poem so well written and picturesque. I love the beauty of glistening snow. Don't much like getting out in it but I sure do like looking out the window at it.
ReplyDeleteLove, Charlene
Hello, Rhoda, I love your impressionistic word painting of winter and although I am and never have been a fond advocate of winter, as per se, I do relish the inspiration of all the seasons and so therefore, I heartily thank you for your artistic presentation! Sheri
ReplyDeleteHi Rhoda! Beautiful poem in which imagery plays a main part. We don't get snow in Malta, so poems like this one help me to get the 'feel' of it. All the best. // paul
ReplyDeleteNice work, Rhoda. Glad to see you here sharing your gifts with other. Thank you and continued blessings!

Thank you Charlene - LI was blasted this year - I am retired, so stayed in for many, many a days...thank you again for your visit and comment...Rhoda
ReplyDeleteHi Sheri - I am not one for winter either, but on the other hand with the high humidity here on LI in the summer, sometimes winter can be a blessing. I am so happy I don't have to go out in it for work anymore...thank you for the lovely comment and visit...Rhoda
ReplyDeleteThank you Paul for the visit and comment - I just can't imagine living where there is no snow as it has been years living here on LI in NY! I am from CA but, one learns to adapt...Your comment as to the 'feel of it' - I'd be happy to send you a snowball package!!! LOL Thanks again...Rhoda
