Ice Wrapped

I dream a pure winter wonderland dream, where I wear a shimmering wedding dress; and I am enclosed with glimmer and gleam. I remember that day- when I said yes, and my ruby cold lips you did caress; your love, my heart you will ever possess. Yet, in my dream I am alone in white, lost in a frozen wilderness of ice; I breathe deeply the pristine landscape bright. My love is drenched in tears- that is the price, this heart is ice-kissed in a bitter vice; oh, your arms around me sure would be nice. Crisp the magical snow in quiet haze, I am searching for you my sweet lover; in dreams, I wander snow trails in a daze. Did you take refuge in snow for cover, in this ice world for me to discover? Then, I find you love- and there I hover. I hover among the tombs white capped, but, only in one is my love ice wrapped. ________________________ November 26, 2018 Poetry/Sonnet/Urban/Ice Wrapped Copyright Protected, ID 18- 1089-056-01 All Rights Reserved.

This is one sonnet that I have never tried my hand at, Constance, but on reading yours I am very much tempted to tackle. A poem dressed in white, like the beautiful bride who unfortunately now mourns the loss of her loved one. Yet her love, despite the icy cold, will live on. ~ Regards // paul

Oh, Hon, this is so hauntingly beautiful. Your descriptions of the scenery and bitter temperatures are wonderful, but I am most impressed with the love that lingers in your heart. After all these years, it's still hard to think of him in that tomb. You know I can relate. A fave for me, Dear Heart. Very, Very lovely!
