Night's Snowflakes Fall Lightly

~ Night's snowflakes fall lightly ~ Night's snowflakes fall lightly without a sound Melt on my walkway No one's around No one awed by their beauty None thrilled by their tingle -- Fresh ice on eager tongues or newly white shingles on sleepy houses with chimneys curling smoke from logs' fires... Crosses glisten high atop steeples Winter's deep silence inspires

These eyes be a silent witness to the beauty of his fallen ink, Gershon. A gorgeous poem of snowy contemplation. Mighty fine poetry, my dear friend. Love and more love always. Romantic Warrior

Thanks, Tom. I'm that big kid too, with my tongue out, just waiting for a falling snowflake to melt on it! ~ Tingle Bells!
