Poem
Blanketing the earth in a frosty glistening Beckoning to the heart – wonders so breathtaking, Lifting the spirits with flakes like glitter, lustrous Silence, gentling the thoughts and the scene, Where feelings flood the night with soft and tender Lights, moon and stars so bright, twinkling Joy through the melancholic sighs caught by Winter’s whimsical groans, echoing in the stillness Quiet joy, endless minutes when the heavens Seem to open up their voice and send flurries so Soft, dancing – swirling to the ground to create The miracle of a magnificently carpeted setting… announcing the promises… For hearts to mend and feelings to blend with the Intimacy of laughing reflections, mirroring hope Wonderous affection from the endless drifts, the Marvelous peace so alive it sends chills of delight, Nature’s insight into the compassion of a life so Satisfied by the sea of silver, the snowy panorama Like jewels sparkling, kissing the moments with Burning truths – purity so clean, so genuine, Authenticity in the natural world, serenity like A hush, singing to the night – in starlight and new Dramas, dreams fading beneath the secrets Burning through the past and swathing the heart In brilliant melodies so tender, so light, they Feel like the soothing, the comfort, found in the home Where love grew up, where happiness pierced The spirit with wishes and ideas, inspirations so real They colored the mind in exciting traces of the unusual The amazing, the praise – praying away in a tongue Only the heavens could understand or expect To hear – never a fear, only the sweetness of a tear, Soundless as a dewdrop, walking mutely along The veins of one leaf, one dream edging its way Across the night, through the sky, releasing a fragrance Uplifting and encouraging, optimistic as the sunrise It is here, where the snowfall glistens, that our light Tender as the breathe of grace, erases every doubt And remembers only to listen to the beating of a heart Who knows that this is the peace that reassures, The peace who promises relief like no other, The peace that opens the door to a still, cool joy That is forever – eternal repose, tranquility far more Faithful than sun or moon, tranquility – harmony Brought to life by the glittering praises of a snowfall Who silences the ways of bitterness and resentment, Bringing to life the song of elation, hope and acceptance Love that is like a shy, gentle smile… opening the soul To eternal life Metrical Tale Cash Prize Poetry Contest Sponsored by: Hilo Poet January 3, 2023
