- Silence In Christmas Thoughts -

This is the season when the forest has winter coat on
  Where does frost smoke come from
  Is it our angels morning yawn
  Sunlight comes as little fanfares from the cello tones
  Large pine trees decorated for Christmas joy
  Gusts send thoughts from forest to sea
  Everything slides into each other to a beating heart
  Here's silence among nature sounds
  Christmas is approaching .... once from the purest source
  The time Jesus lay in the crib

Very nicely written Anne Lise. And such a beautiful line to end with. The thoughts of what that truly meant to all mankind. Oh the amazing Glory You shall receive from just the simplest acts in praising His Name. Happy New Year!

A marvelous devotional poem, Anne. Brilliant use of metaphors and similes. Enchanting! Thanks for visiting my poem and for your lavish praise. My poetry writing has slowed down lately.
