bleak treeless plain
white blanketed mountains
permafrost hardened ground, I am
alone

Premium Member tundra heart


my tundra heart
     permafrost perennial
          frail emotion frozen

your flaming fervor
     turns glacial desire ember
           in inferno of love

Premium Member Scene of Crystal

Permafrost upon the boughs, in a glistening diamond wood; where the water meets the Terra, thin sheets in semi-melt perform a slow ballet.

Premium Member Love Inferno


Emotion
Permafrost
Tundra heart

In your lured fire
My glacier soul
Smolders into
Desire ember

My blazing yearning
Dances with your flame
Conjoined lust ash flies
In sensual sky
From love inferno

A Resurrected Kitty

A kitten
Living in a discarded box
November
grease covers his pink paws.
Under my sister's deck.

I stood shivering
on the permafrost.

So thin
fur matted from the dirt
Remember
a bus ride home.
hiding under my coat.

Premium Member Snow Days

Frosty rain mixed with snow
Like sprinkled salt from God's shaker
Sleepy sky seems to unfold
Beautiful white painting by snow maker
Permafrost memoirs so soft
Of past winters long ago
Lively breeze a melodic frost
Moments of warmth despite cold

Premium Member Flakes of Fire

My tundra heart
     Permafrost perennial
          Frail emotion frozen.

Your flaming fervor
     Turns glacial desire ember
           In inferno of love.

My blazing yearning
     Ashes twirl to the sky
           On flakes of fire.

Halloween Ghost

Locked in the frost,
Halloween seems like a gatepost, 

Fantasies turn into a permafrost,
Pumpkins next to the doorpost, 

Vampires at the rearmost,
Ghosts at the bedpost,
Wolves at the aftmost, 

Midnight clocking the midmost...
Sunrise cleansing the defrost.

Premium Member Fervent Flare

In my arctic heart
perennial permafrost
freezes fragile emotions.

In your flaming fervor
glacial desire turns cinder 
in the inferno of love.

In my blazing yearning
searing crave swirls 
with fervent flare of fire.

Open To Interpretation

It's there in the darkness
of Indigo rain
Starlings streak the skies
in vapor trails of gold

Winds whistle familiar tunes
as the moon placates the sea's
Time hangs motionless
beneath the permafrost

Revealing what can't be known
The dogs lay silent
in fields of emerald green
and we choose to speak in tongues.

Yellow Peril

Existential fear, 
erected by the faceless horde;  
old yellow!
seismic,
voodoo wave,
dominating weak;
Our Territory and tenure.
Yellow Peril, in all his glory

The depths of disparity, 
neither somber or pallid;
chromaticity;
Old yellow!
Impending catastrophe;
A Permafrost wrap
Brazen
Yellow Peril, In all his glory

Hopeful Jubilation,
Bigotry 
segregation
Blind, 
Sad,
Immortal,
Yellow peril

Black Dog Blues

Black Dog Blues To have control of emotion, mental black dog of the lost, plunge thoughts deep in icy ocean, it cant move in permafrost, depression lives if you let it, but you are better than that, remember the part with a happy heart, where your MOOD control is at, i could not have put it better mate, weak Willie pays the cost, mental IS of the tensile frame, resolve is never lost...

Premium Member Global Warming Is No Myth

we've seen
               signs of it.
           global warming
        is as real as it gets,
               no doubt.

              spring-like,
             the weather.
            in mid-winter;
      icebergs of Antarctica 
                melting.

                 oceans
              keep rising
           and permafrost
    of the North Pole thawing
                  yearly.

Premium Member A Mouse Tale

a mouse tale

the tundra mouse has her own story
she sits in the whispering dry grasses
beyond trees and mountains
in the place of permafrost 
she makes her bed deep below
where the roots of the world
struggle to hold against the wind

tales of all the earth fly to her
on the north gales breath
murmurs wuther along many passages 
in search of an ear to hear 
a heart to hold them safe from times destruction
the mouse gathers these stories as seeds
buries them deep in waiting
