Kim Rodrigues Poet Pantoum

The Way Uphill is Paved

The way uphill is paved
With Winter white and cherry lips;
Silver wings filigree-engraved,
Runners’ serpentine-slips.

With Winter white and cherry lips,
Calmness after the blizzard winds.
Runners’ serpentine slips.
A child’s whim, hallelujah hymns.

Calmness after the blizzard winds.
The landscape, a breath of fresh air.
A child’s whim, hallelujah hymns.
Imprint of angel’s fair.

The landscape, a breath of fresh air,
Silver wings filigree-engraved -
Imprint of angel’s fair.
The way uphill is paved.
