Best Snugly Poems
The Tawny ThrostleTrudging under frozen starlit skies
Against stiff Winters bitter blowes...
When ambling up past frosted trees
From the wooded valley down below.
As stepping into a clearing glade,
Surround ragged drifts of thinning snow,
Once Summers haze - long since forbade,
Now pale Moon beams all aglow.
For within this realm of Twilight,
Perched...

Days EndThe day is done. Travel dispersed, no more roaming.
Between dusk and sunset, it’s the gloaming.
I settle to watch, inspired by that instant moment,
When day gives over to night a regal bestowment.
Lights begin to shimmer, as we near twilight.
Across the horizon created a radiant glow so...

Winters EndHereabouts the thinning glades
Of sparse grey Birches:
Brackens crisp copper tresses
All aglow;
Gently waking Snowdrops
Lift their sleepy heads
From leafy beds of woodland moil,
When tucked snugly up,
Out of intrusive sight and just
Below.
Fondly the slowing bend
Hugs upon the river...
Banked heavily with frosted
Bulrushes
That shifting breezes once did...

In The New Utopia
Nobody owns anything but everyone is rich - for what greater wealth can there be than cheerfulness, peace of mind, and freedom from anxiety? ~Thomas More
She won't let caretakers cut down wildflowers
living under the hedge at the boundary edge
of her very small plot in its...

A Squirrely Sonnet Look at that sun shining so bright,
I had such a good rest last night,
I do so much, just love this tree,
this is the best bed I’ve ever seen.
Old oak, old oak, my gentle friend,
I must go now and attend
to foraging treasures for my winter’s...

Their melodious humming drifts
through the fragrant night air
carrying a sense of tranquility
In this enchanting universe

A delicate whisper
of silver breeze captivated softly.
Trees are lavishly graced

And Still I Drive - Part OneStars fall under failing skies...stars fall...stars fall...
And sadly...i start to drive.
Through the unremarkable village with its tall
Georgian Bay window panes, lightless,
devoid of visages; outwardly staring back at my
Abject countenance with detached contempt and utter disdains.
Stars fall under failing skies...stars fall...stars fall...
And i start...

A Sea of LoveSwimming in tears of glee
birth from water - my child I hold.
Gently, carefully I cut her free.
The skies open, rain streams of gold.
In tears of glee my child I hold.
Her mother immersed snugly
displays a glow. She flows, radiates.
I hand her our daughter our baby.
A sea...

ValentineI found it snugly tucked away,
Held deep within her private things
Hidden under lock and key
Was there more than eyes could see
A secret love that couldn't be?
A cherished thing, .... a poem, of bliss
A valentine, that held a kiss
Precious keepsake, or was it not?...
Was it heartbreak,...

Sentry of the Seait's been two hundred years that I have stood here
Casting my silent signal on the sea
Warning those that venture near my coastline
Protecting those that place their trust in me
On this rocky crest I am the master
The crashing surf bowing at my feet
My eye guides the...

Looking in your blue eyes I know the grey days of the past are behind me
I blush scarlet, when you take my hand and whisper I love you

A Time For Wee Things
There is naught more important
This cold, rainy, winter day (to me)
Than to wrap up snugly by the window
And watch the world pass on it’s way
I’ve seen the grandest of canyons
Seen the grandeur of seaside beaches
Breathed mountain air, cold and rare
And have soared to the highest...

Sleeping BulbsLovely blanket on
The ground, snowflake comforter
Keeps my flower bulbs.
Snugly and warm as they sleep;
In winter repose so deep.
Springs thaw will wake them;
Hungry, they’ll eat and drink their,
Fill when they arise.
Tulips and irises grow
Tall and strong with nourishment.
A hiding place where,
Newborn bunnies safely sleep,
Among my...

Winter's Sleepy DreamsIcy winter storms swirl
within the clouded night,
wailing winds howl,
gales rage, and slushy sleet
freezes the ground.
Will the dawn turn red?
Chances you'll never know
as you're snuggled cosily
under thick downy quilts and covers,
dreaming the crystalline snows away.
You cuddle snugly up towards me
stealing my warmth away.
I feel such...
