Winter King

a cold day in winter,
a tremendous sight,
a mother sings to her children,
saying goodnight.

the cold is thick,
lying on the ground 
a smell of dampness, 
in the air all around.

What a sight,
for a winter king,
watching the snowflakes,
dancing and singing.

so while we are nestled 
in the land full of dreams
we should be dreaming 
about the sweet winter king.

Thanks for sharing this... exposing your thoughts through your unique poetic style. Meanwhile, I greet you with the love of the Lord, expressed by John 3:16 of the Bible, "For God so loved the world, that he gave his only begotten Son, that whosoever believeth in him should not perish, but have everlasting life." Be blessed.
