~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

Winter’s breath sighs splendor, Causing love’s surrender, Bleeding fondness and grace, Love is no pretender, Soft warmth you can’t erase. Winter’s breath sighs splendor, Stirring faith so tender, Joy seeps into the soul, Wonders God shall render, Silence who can console. Winter’s breath sighs splendor, True love won’t offend her, Love survives the bitter, A chill that could end her, This love is no quitter. Winter’s breath sighs splendor, Dusk’s dreams, though so slender, Abide inside to grieve, Love is the heart’s mender, Through the cold, just believe!

such an uplifting and compelling poem, Gina...I've not seen this form before but love what you've done with it...so beautiful and lyrical with some powerful and encouraging words. "love is the heart's mender, through the cold.' So true, when life (not just the weather) seems so cold and chilly, love is indeed a great mender. I loved this...have a great evening, Sara

Oh wow, this is such a beautiful poem with a mellifluous sweetness in your words, which compels the heart to believe in the magic of love and hope amidst darkness... Your wordplay is so evocative with soulful depth and I truly adore how you've written "Dusk’s dreams, though so slender-..Love is the heart’s mender, Through the cold, just believe", "Love survives the bitter", "Joy seeps into the soul" Woww, dear Gina, love this :)
