Booty Land

When burrs of winter snow 
 come knocking at your door 
 and caprice winds
 begin to whip 
 the windows of your soul 

tuck your blanket firmly 
 round your chin and smile
 Wing the dream, perch it 
 on a snowy branch

watch the snowflake 
 flirt and dance 
 like a diamond of
 appendage glee ,

give the winter a chance 
 to woo you with her
 white skirts of puritan beauty

soon spring will burst forth
 with violet hints that flower 
 and send winter to booty land 

for good. xo

HI Pixie, Mystic Rose, I had a friend once called Mystic Rose. I do miss her. Now, back to the poem. I love the beauty of your words. They do sing to me. Such wondrous scenes touch my mind as I read down your wonderful lines. This is an excellent, beautiful, gentle write, it touches the soul my friend. Have a wonderful Thursday. Hugs....Mike. XX
