Aconites gazing into the sun
'neath catkins dangling,finely spun

Awakened mammals desert their holes
rummaging midst the hazel boles

Long twilight days in winter's shade
tomorrow..brings snowdrops in the glade...

snowfall in the dell-
             spring blossom dies

sunshine on my face-
           summer's last hurrah

the tangle of Autumn-
           bonfired into smoke

candlemas evensong-
                winter's requiem...

Presentation
Mary arrived to be purified
in the holy Temple where did reside
     Anna and Simeon
     who each had a vision
of Jesus to be shared and magnified.

Mary heard their child would be a sign
for the fall and rise of many in time,
     revealed as the light
     for gentiles delight
bringing salvation by God's design.

Luke 2.22-38...

The Caravel Moon
The Caravel Moon with its dark grey sails on the high seas of a stormy dark blue sky

on the flickering eve of Candlemas. I watch from a light house those sweet enemies 

querulously contest on the wharf of the Stade de France on a clear Parisian evening.  

The man's game was won by Les Blues, yet only England of the northern hemisphere 

sides have won the Rugby Union World Cup with The Kick of History in ancient 2003 AD....

Premium Member Hallows Eve To Candlemas
Hallows Eve to Candlemas,
the sun now turning south,alas;
November sombre,December dark,
January,February cold and stark.
Catkins litter the forest floor,
beeches shed their leaves galore.
Gales melange the mix,as decay brings 
nature's bionomics.
Hexagon pointed stars move and shift ,
into a patterned powdered drifts.
Rain filled days of slush and muck,
webs on shards of gossamer 
stuck.
Twilight months in winter shade 
until the snowdrops matamorphise 
in the glade....
