Vignettes In Snow
sublime quilt
of dormant shimmers
in lethargic winter sunshine
stretched on shivering earth
as finger caresses of peace.
turning variegated world
into a room filled
with feathers floating from
bursting womb
of sailing pillows on azure.
pouring wisps of manna
from chalices in heavens,
falling through misty translucence
to salve blisters on
breast of earth in chilblain.
muted rhapsodies of drizzles
resound as whispers of
snow crystals with soar throat
humming ambiguous strains
in ears of indifferent Boreas.
hymeneals in albescence
floating in the chilly breeze,
prayers of angels for children
and dreams for animals
dormant in hibernation,
from land of Morpheus reach
the world as prismatic snow.
like molted moonlight
raiment of night covering
visage of earth's verdant realms
piled on treetops and roofs,
turning kaleidoscopic canvas
of existence argent...
