- Silence In Christmas Thoughts -

This is the season when the forest has winter coat on Where does frost smoke come from Is it our angels morning yawn Sunlight comes as little fanfares from the cello tones Large pine trees decorated for Christmas joy Gusts send thoughts from forest to sea Everything slides into each other to a beating heart Here's silence among nature sounds Christmas is approaching .... once from the purest source The time Jesus lay in the crib 22.12.2014 A-L Andresen :) Copyright © All Rights Reserved

Very nicely written Anne Lise. And such a beautiful line to end with. The thoughts of what that truly meant to all mankind. Oh the amazing Glory You shall receive from just the simplest acts in praising His Name. Happy New Year!

A marvelous devotional poem, Anne. Brilliant use of metaphors and similes. Enchanting! Thanks for visiting my poem and for your lavish praise. My poetry writing has slowed down lately.
