Alabaster Trees

there's no lingering hush
in this morning's bold blush
through alabaster trees
befalls a whistling breeze

it wraps me in its cold
like frozen thoughts of old
yet warmth becomes anew
in lingered thoughts of you

Thank you so much Jan... that image has been begging my muse to use it the past few days... i finally had a poem to tie it in to and decided it would make a good title as well... hugs Sandy

Sweet... What with the frigid weather, romance becomes like a 'hot-cold' treatment. Swedes love that 'out of the cold lake and into the sauna 'thing.' Not for everyone, though. Cheers, Gershon

What a beautiful poem to start the day with. Knowing the thoughts of someone you care about can warm you and brighten your day, winter doesn't seem so bad after all. Loved this Sandy. I was just going to leave a smiley face but decided to write out how it made me feel. (It made me smile) : )

Thank you so much Chris... fresh snow can be a pretty scene, although i prefer flowers and the sounds of birds chirping then a white blanket and the whistle of winds... there still is some beauty in it...glad it made you smile, as your comment just made me smile :) hugs
