Ice Carnival

As every winter evening falls, in a sheer cloak, thin as a shade, a herald of ice dreams calls and starts to lead a parade. The winter spirit plays with his bitter ice whiff. And freezes the old way into a picture, icily stiff. Bells of an old Cathedral cleave the deafness on the street. Dancing in a big ice hall, pellucid butterflies compete. They slide on the ice of a frozen looking-glass, telling stories to entice, drawing a carnival mask. It lulls to sleep the eyes, watching through it's face and holds them very tight into an everlasting embrace.

Thanks for sharing this... exposing your thoughts through your unique poetic style. Meanwhile, I greet you with the love of the Lord, expressed by John 3:16 of the Bible, "For God so loved the world, that he gave his only begotten Son, that whosoever believeth in him should not perish, but have everlasting life." Be blessed.
