Notes About The Poem

Image result for fantasy girl in the snow

Winter Child


fluffy clouds swirl in the cold winter sky
yet there are sweet moments of dazzling blue
but, it is time for winter to say goodbye
as I wish for a delightful spring view
oh, I am a winter child in my soul
loving to walk in the white snow and wind
going for a very long evening stroll
still I am ready to leave it behind
for the bare bone like branches creak and moan
and I imagine them in flowing emerald gowns
as this winter has made me sad and alone . . . 
and the snow has hidden all the tomb stones

Though you are a winter child , you await the arrival of spring to see the bare trees once more clad in fresh green dress! Beautifully written, dear Constance !
