Winter's Snowy Season

The blue turned grey turned to blankets of white, Midwinter’s shroud that mantled field and town, A breath of north resounds across the night, To leave a frosty sparkle on winter’s gown. Beneath the moon the fairies come to dance, While dreamy eyes rejoice upon the scene, As bow and fiddle strike up their romance, The mind recalls this place where love had been. I watched them dance an elfin jig or two, My heart, meanwhile, languished in years gone by, When you and I would dance all dressed in blue, Then share a kiss beneath the winter sky. Those wistful times that never fade away, Returning bed and there beside you lay. Form: English Sonnet
