Notes About The Poem

A White Christmas

The kiss of a light snow whispers Across the land, lighting the way For this Christmas morning wonder A caress of Winter’s soothing breath Leaves me with a feeling of tenderness Warmth from the fireside so hopeful Naked branches peek from beneath A layer of frozen, white flakes rustling With the song of silence that echoes joy Brilliant rays twinkle across glittering vista Reaching beyond the shadowy thoughts To hypnotize with peace in the heart Emerald pines are swathed in frosty adornment Fondling the needles like lacy sleeves of dreams Beckoning through the forest with soft reveries This Christmas snow gestures with fluffy, light Tendrils of affection and inspiration, captivating Thoughts with a penetrating feeling of love Love this alive and moving only comes from One Who we celebrate with a day of hope and faith Peaceful light embraces the white land with worship Worship for the One who gives hearts second chances Lives the dance that thrives with piercing, rich intensity That mystifies and delights the passion for a life in Christ This Christmas, across a snow covered countryside I celebrate the touch from a love that brings out the best In all creation – the best thoughts, hopes and dreams The best of everything – lights up this Christmas with Blessings more fair than the snowfall on the ground Snow that reminds us how blessed we are to know Love!

You've painted a beautiful landscape using only white paint, Regina. To be kissed by the whispered breath of snowflakes is so very poetic. Lovely...
