Winter's Sleeping Rose
White as snow pure as a dove.
The veil of life is covered with love.
Her lips frozen to hand's welcomed charms.
The icy river flowed across her mind with
opened arms.
Together the breath of silence, wind, and
stars.
Laughter to the moon I am round, a soft
tongue.
Skin of pure cotton butterfly wings crashed to
thunder's mar and space.
Inside a jar is that beauty through the
winter shade?
Leaves marry to virgin's soul weeping
creative tones of rapture's spring.
Dear quiet fairy cross cheeks burned the
midnight cat walk.
What is birth of a lonely feather's dying cry
when love has wings and has no ground to
fly?
Steep river rolling lover's cloth of time.
White as heaven clouds of trust.
Lips kissed the quiet time bodies
felt moist with rain's misty morning dew.
Capturing the midnight grace.
Heartless carrying case
with no destination to call.
One's own life is an empty void
only secrets to disown and
be beautiful, sleep velvet rose.
Colors soft.
A reaction plump the shave
of the tree and plant your life.
Leave a hole embraced to willow
sweet hummingbird's pillow for
the white angel's head to rest.
Sleep, Sleep, Sleep, Sleep, Sleep.
