Gershon Wolf Poet Rhyme

Where Have You Gone - Fresh Fluffy Snow

where have you gone
  fresh fluffy snow
glistening over meadows
  on rooftops in rows

where have you gone
  bracing December air
deeply breathed, adored
  on cheeks ruddy and fair

purge the slush from muddy lanes
  whisk the grime from icy lanes
recapture the magic of that first snowfall
  paint flakes of frost on my windowpane

Kim Rodrigues January 11, 2022 at 7:48 PM Fresh snow’s beautiful but it becomes a mess! Very nicely done!

Debra L Brown January 11, 2022 at 6:19 PM Always an outstanding piece from you. Gershon......Blessings ~Debra Gershon Wolf January 11, 2022 at 7:03 PM Well, thank you! I am simply trying my best to make a small point with each poem. Blessings, gw

Terry Flood January 11, 2022 at 4:51 PM Love it, Gershon… but snow belongs in snow domes. In the Uk, one flake lands in a field somewhere… and they cancel all the trains! Sheesh! Terry Gershon Wolf January 11, 2022 at 6:12 PM Either snow domes or snow cones. ~ Sweets and White Chocolate, gw

Caren Krutsinger January 11, 2022 at 1:09 PM I am ready for the "fresh fluffy snow"- happy to report it will be here on Saturday! Gershon Wolf January 11, 2022 at 2:22 PM Please!!! Keep it all to yourself. OK?! Chicago's seen enough snow and ice for a whole winter this past week, thank you. Enjoy! :) gw

P.S. Awtry January 11, 2022 at 11:14 AM There's some snowy magic in this write. An optimistic glint there in the end about cleaning up the mess and waiting for more. Since you may actually be hoping for warmer weather and plenty of sunshine, I will simply say--May your weather wishes come true! :) Gershon Wolf January 11, 2022 at 5:56 PM Thanks, P.S... and you're right. It's a bit too nippy for me at this point in Winter. Warmth and Light, Gershon

Paulette Calasibetta January 11, 2022 at 9:26 AM Gershon beauty can only last so long and then it fades....a sad story but a great write! :) Paulette Gershon Wolf January 11, 2022 at 5:52 PM Thank you for your kind words, Paulette. Splendor and Glory, Gershon

John Lawless January 11, 2022 at 8:12 AM Yeah...it all looks good til day 3 when that dirty five o'clock shadow creeps in..... Gershon Wolf January 11, 2022 at 5:50 PM So, now I know what to do. I'll get out there with my shaver and get rid of that 'angry stubble.' lol.

Sara Kendrick January 11, 2022 at 4:04 AM The melting can be messy, but it soon dies up. We have big snow or ice or combination around every 10 years. It is probably about time for us to have another one. I enjoyed reading this one today.Your visits to my page are uplifting. Sara Gershon Wolf January 11, 2022 at 5:44 PM I'd love for just one winter to see the snow appear for a day, sparkle and shine, and then go back where it came from... I can dream, can't I?! Sara, here's to Inspiration and Transcendence, Gershon
