Short Winter(A) Poems

Another month, another year,
another smile, another tear,
another winter, a summer too......
but there will never be
another you "I Miss You"....

like nature in spring
begins the season of life
winter a blessing
where memories are best kept
waiting the resurrection

When early Spring gives weary Winter a shove
   Rash is he who dons garden gloves

The bracing scent of tulip's first bloom
   Oft buried 'neath wake of blizzard's doom...

The rolling hills, the tree, the leaf
The master painter finds the hue
With strokes of green and sweet finesse 
He bids the drab of winter a last adieu

Late winter - A Haiku

Showery grayish
before late winter windy
out of early spring

Does the winter really turn into spring,
Does it go from a white to a green sort of thing?
Or, is a winter a thing of its own–
A singular winter, past, off to places unknown?

Winter, a sad season, cold, foggy,
but it makes you think.

It makes you think of the past,
the present, the furture.

The best moment to think.....
is during the winter and when
you see that light out of the window.

It's the sun.....
a ray of hope.

That brings more questions
then a mind could answer....

The lady had her day
Of bright lips and mystery
In summer she was Muskeg
Each winter a monsoon
It was as monet
Her refusal to weep

And had my courtship
Proven less lissome
If I had not cast lots
With vagabonds and dreadnaughts
Then perhaps, say I, perhaps
Time would not be vain
And the lady
Still ever vivid in circumstance
And moon fall...

In winter, a warm cup of tea 
Can be one of the coziest way
To warm up your day
Whether it’s a classic black tea
Herbal blends, or soothing chamomile
Tea not only warms you but feels even better
But also offers a comforting ritual of smile
Pairing it with a good book, reading love letter
A favorite blanket wrapped bodies love share
Oh, how lucky your life so sweet and dear....

A crowd gathers beneath the Maple
amid rustling rumors of winter
each one pondering “why me?”
as the rally moves aimlessly.

The ancient Maple basks in its Zen
rooted in an infinite knowledge
passed to its fluttering seedlings
caught in the chaos of the crowd.

Winter, a Maples meditation,
circular “oms” mark time’s passing
echo through her folded branches
exhale the truth -  a silent hush.

December winter, a token 
    Angels sing in corners of darkness 
      Night's peace broken 
        Heaven's brightness

  Child's cries in golden hay 
    The child I've fallen in love
      With His tickled laughter that melts away 
        On the wings of a pair doves

  Evening laughter of nature 
    All gather in admiration 
      Pleasure crossed the baby's features 
        A heavy burden of salvation

A vine in the winter, a beautiful sight
A thought worth a think on a cold winter night
Glistening 'neath a starlit sky
Unbeknownst to its viewer this vine may well die
The vine might have cried had it eyes to do so
But it didn't have the luxury to let it all go
The vine has no mouth or a throat for his screams
It's dying of cold as it bursts at the seams
One fragile crack; it might shatter on sight!
A thought worth a think on a cold winter night...

The richest child in the world is the one who knows love
Who possesses enough so that life is not tough
A hat in the winter, a jacket in spring, and food for a belly, are plenty of things
Their memories won't consist of many a toy, cause the ones that all matter are made up of joy
Time spent playing, so simple in task, passing a football, with his dad playing catch
Baking some cookies, with her mom playing tea, these are the things that make memories....

The Hot Weather During Winter Days
In winter’s grasp, the sun still blazes bright
A warm embrace in December’s light
Snowflakes melt before they touch the ground
Heatwaves in winter, a season unbound
Sweaters left hanging, coats pushed away, 
Short sleeves and sunshine, a warm winter day
Nature confused, blossoms start to bloom
Hot weather in winter dispelling the gloom
A paradox of seasons, a world turned new
Winter days with skies of summer blue

Winter a special time of year.
                                              Thankful dinner and decorating a tree.
                                                        Our Lords day of birth.  
                                                The beginning of a brand new year.
                                                                       Teresa Skyles

And why are there tears for the words gone before,
When I'm not even sure if they're true anymore?
What cause should I have to look back with disdain,
To a much bleaker time, when all written was pain?
In a long-gone child-winter, a child to thaw
Laid blank in the Sun, not child anymore.
And now that your face is a stranger today,
And stranger acquaintances got in the way,
There's not any sadness, there's not even pain,
Just a wholeness... or numbness...
They both feel the same....
