Snow Globes Piercing Diamonds

Remembrances lead to longing for souls once united in time long ago still precise in memory now only in far distant accounts long closed unreachable and compartmentalized without any semblance to reality like snowflakes hypnotic white illusions of distorted reflections untouchable The predictable heart in relentless wandering overlooks and overcomes while foreboding and hope battle for dominance with impetuous passion in the vainly desperate hours reason dances away upon lyrical notes the spiraling cold blue music no one hears plays on in mystical magic Whiskey soaked caricature’s fill the room with their constituent shapes as the potent silence of unspoken words holds us captive purposefully the decision for deceit is one whom another deceiver cannot believe in or trusts as metamorphosis brings the senses present to the change in seasonal rime All common attributes even when perfectly polished run black inside paradox no more than a few percent of spectacular in the spectrum of light’s shine the temptation to melt away no longer haunts from the icy facets of time fire devours all impurities and remains one pure spirt ablaze.

Hello Donna, Very well-done here!! I literally absorbed all four of quatrain stanzas here of your most wondrous write. I particularly like the "Whiskey soaked caricature's fill the room . . . " among many others. Extraordinary Work!! Best Always, Gary

Thank you Silent one... Family Christmas is not always what Hallmark pushes on the public...however the Birthday of our Lord is something that one can hold onto and celebrate:-) Thank you so much for posting. Merry Christmas!
