Snow Like a Whisper
Snow like a whisper does fall from the sky
Silently finding its way
Morning shall come in the blink of an eye
Nature to beckon the day
White fills the quiet with hope of a smile,
melodies that you might hear
Blanketing softy in porcelain style,
a glow born of sun does appear
Stillness shall flourish in peace at this hour,
cold it will harness the reins
Glorious partners to stay but a while,
here on this earth to reclaim
Tranquil endeavors to quell every whim,
lie on the lawn in repose
Forgotten meanings that now shall begin,
found each occasion it snows
Gentle its echo as we find retreat,
here by the warmth of the fire
No use descending on snow covered streets,
only our love is required
Unruffled seasons of splendor do shine,
muted the colors they bear
Normal these visions of our wintertime,
life without worry or care
Slower the pace of this plaid flannel world,
hectic the days of ago
Restful this morning to us has unfurled,
taking each step a bit slow
Nothing to urgent that now can not wait,
serenity finds to take hold
The heat of the fire we two do migrate,
so warm inside when it’s cold
Pearlescent shimmering visions this day,
resting here safe in your love
Oh but to spend my life living this way,
bring forth the snow from above
