Best Snows Poems

Lifeless shiver the decaying meadows
Where blizzards of winter exact a toll,
Freezing foliage in autumnal throes;
Dimming ambitions of parching knoll.

Golden beams glimmer dreams of dawn
Soothing miseries of trembling night,
Now that splendorous autumn is gone,
Sprinkling delight on withering blight.

Season of snows flaunts nature aglow
Where rivers freeze, struggle...

Planting words inside my garden,
  watering them at will

Staking memories long forgotten,
  feelings cold and shrill

Row by row the letters planted,
  phrases start to grow

Whose cool fall day a harvest brings
  —to feed the winter snows

(Villanova Pennsylvania: April, 2019)...

It was a very cold day I was tired all afternoon,
I felt the need to sleep and I took to my bed,
I double checked the stack of diapers,
because I knew you would arrive soon. 

Outside the little trailer we called home,
I could here the winds...

The snow silently cloaked the land
falling slowly but insistently
creating large drifts against the walls
bigger and bigger get the flakes

A world of white where ever you look
gnashed here and there by trees
sticking up their bare branches
which are now also snow laden

Sheep struggle through the drifts
helped by...

The weather outside is frightful
My heated home is so delightful
Hangin' in my jammies don't ya know-
Let it snow let it snow let it snow.

Warmed the oven ready for bakin'
Apple pie is what I'm makin'
The snow blower's ready to go-
Let it snow let it snow let...

I’m going up to the highest peak
Up to the roof of the world
To sit at Red Mountains steep
Kneel down and pray for my girl
 
 
 
This beautiful place of treasures
With religious murals upon the walls
The architecture uniquely clever
Like the figure of my senorita doll
And...

BEYOND THE SNOWS OF WINTER

You go on ahead, my son,
I’ll catch up with you when the snow reaches the end of winter
You have your life to live and worlds to explore 
Where you are headed I won’t be going

Maybe I will be there in spirit...

ETERNAL recollected memories 
Despite the mists of EVERLASTING time.
Four years have passed so slowly.
BOUNDLESS scenes recorded.
Thus I still reminisce…..

The garden was pure delight,
The evening scent spread afar.
I wondered if I could have 
A moment of peace and quiet,
Wandering along the ENDLESS paths.

I saw the most...

A Blizzard can drive even flurries graciousness hard intensifying journeys kingdoms laboring missions neighborhoods overridden pure quests reveal storms terrorizing unknowing victims with xenobiotic yielding zoothapsis.



Snow can be so beautiful and serene.
Though wet and bitterly chilling.
Unifying the countryside in brilliancy,
Victimizing the ground in slumber,
It must...

So, finally it snows.
The amber glow of
Distant streetlights
Illuminating the sky
Like the embers
of a frozen fire.

The softening sound of silence
As each weightless crystal
Swirls it's own part
In the perfect dance.
What seems like chaos
Reflects the majesty
Of an Autumn murmuration in flight,
Ever moving, darting, hustling
But of one collective intellection.

Tomorrow...

The languid days of summer passed so fleet - autumn's almost here.
Alas, I've fiddled around and left so many things undone, I fear.
Now, I must hustle about and cease buildin' castles in the sky,
Ere the honkin' geese and blowin' snows begin to fly!

There's corn to...

It snows outside 
The flakes float down 
Feathery lights 
ride Lazy winds abound
 And nowt can stop their descent.
 In passions breeze
 In mechanical slants 
In natures sneeze 
And passive plants 
nowt can stop their descent.
 As walkers pause 
And shovels part
And children cause 
Figurines...

It was cold 
When we first met 
And you made it feel like home 
You were my safety net 
And I wanted to show you 
But you turned away 
you left me in this cold 
i had to learn the hard way

And now when it...

Johnny Cash songs on a lonely Sunday morn...
 Got a court date coming up...
 Missing the life I used to have...
 Made sure the door was shut...
 Gave up all the drinking and pills...
 Stone sober in the cold... 
 Lost on a strange street...

Flakes as silent satin
Sail down salubriously 
Dissipating into stupefaction
Hitherto ramming clay
They were the forlorn harbingers
Before a cataclysm of sposh
Burst through the firmament
Like a derailed locomotive 
Besmirching any implement in ambit
The innocuous sniff of sposh 
Vilifying my cranium
As with a burst of gore
Revivifying to the hub
After...
