Joanna Daniel Poet Verse

Winter World

Frosted pines accosted 
Crystal flakes 
Roaming in the gloaming

Melancholy valley 
White and wan
Pathos rules the sick snows

Dull unpredictable 
Winter breeze
Whistles through the thistles

Valiant hills and pliant  
Willows dance
Spilling sadness chilling 

Jack Frost spews cold attack
Life asleep 
Hoar is forevermore

(When life is colourless, you tend to grow sad....)
