James Fraser Poet Rhyme

A Christmas Snow

Follow me and walk down an avenue of Firs
To my Log Cabin you'll view, I'm sure you'll concur

Overlooking Loch Ness, look in the fields you'll see
A herd of beautiful Reindeer roaming so free

But it's when you look around, my world glistens
It started by walking to here, footsteps to listen

Crunching, crunching, crunching, white virgin snow
Where here it's normally dark, now it's all aglow

As we turn the corner many colours in radiate
Glistening amidst the white kaleidoscopic drape

Then to the cabin we view, lanterns of every colour
Hanging in joyful sway never outdoing each other

As we draw nearer through the arched window I see
So beautiful in adorn, a most lovely Christmas Tree

Through the door we enter, Sleigh Bells in the Snow
It's at this time of year, so many many smiles show

Robert Lindley November 28, 2014 at 9:50 PM A walk in the snow and trip back in my memories of our home on the farm many decades ago. A snow that year which was the perfect texture for snowball fights and me with 5 brothers as targets! Great poem my friend--best of luck in the contest.. Solid 7.. James Fraser November 30, 2014 at 2:27 PM I love the snow Robert, especially when it's untouched virgin snow. Thank you, James :)
