Premium MemberWINTER'S HAND

whispering ice-lit night turns ever so radiant
air in its blue glow settles into quiet depth
the land rises like an ornate palace of frost
pillars of ice lifting themselves into a silvery chamber
the air glows with cold resonance, a breath-built hall
a quiet cathedral of frost gathers around the traveler

balanced limbs, delicate icicles — a tree hushed in spirit
leaning toward the sojourner with a soft crystalline voice
its presence near, carved by winter’s hand
asking what deep truth the traveler is ready to see


Premium MemberWinter Moon

Whispers in a january evening
Infringe upon the sullen silence.
Nature doles its peaceful sleep.
Tranquility come along bearing gifts
Enticed by embers scattered across the sky,
Radiant rebels in the night.

Modestly a moonstone hangs above the horizon,
Ovation worthy though she be.
Oceans sway to her command,
Nuptials possibly in the cards.

Premium MemberTomato Soup

Tonight my tummy will smile,
Over my tongue it will go.
May I have more?
Another bowl for me.
Two will fill me up, 
On this winter's night. 


Soup warms me up on a cold night,
Or on a rainy day.
Under my soup the crackers dive,
Pretending to hide from me.

Premium MemberSnowed In

Soothing hot tea and decadent cookies
Not healthy but a yummy winter snack
Only looking from window as I eat
Watching cars make snowy tracks
Even the animals avoid the cold
Desperate to stay away from snow

I hope you are warm and happy
Now that Jack Frost is laughing

Premium MemberWarm Winter Winds

Warm winter winds wave palm fronds in the air;
Ah yes, but cold my heart you are not here;
Rain rather snow upon my forehead bare,
More warm it is, when you are with me, dear.


Premium MemberDecember

Delightful music fills the air
Evergreens dressed in holiday tinsel
Christmas is around the corner
Everyone is busier than ever
Multitude of things to do
Baritones and sopranos sing familiar carols
Eating yule log and cookies is encouraged
Reaching for eggnog and mistletoe that's hung

Premium MemberSleet

Sliding down the sky a frosty scene 
Liquid ice frozen on licorice street
Every drop dancing falling so free
Engaging my tires as I’m driving 
Terror and delight as I’m sliding

Premium MemberWelcome November

While the sky weeps drops of woe
Every child of nature seeks to stow
Layers of warmth against the coming cold,
Children listen to tales told of long ago
Of journeys bold on ships like pearls,
Majestic winds in sails unfurled,
Engulfed with hope of promised gold.

Now winds of cold strip leaves of gold,
Odiously pulling lives from summer ease,
Venom’s cold from mountain tops to seize 
Every creature comfort from the sun,
Mayhap you can try to run
Beneath short cold days and long cold nights,
Even huddle in the fire’s light,
Ravenous cold still creeps through holes.

Winter has a captivating beauty for me
In my snowy world all is still and surreal
Nothing is as restful as exquisite pristine snow 
Today graceful, fragile, flakes are falling
Every step is pure white as I walk in the cold
Reveries of winter birds saturate the air

Premium MemberRather Should the Winter Never End

Rather should the winter never end,
If I should meet the spring without thy hand;
The seasons our souls do summers send,
And all do fall upon our hearts’ command.

Premium MemberWinter

W-atch the birds of winter
I-n their wild freedom joy
N-estled in night's frigid presence
T-hen gathering sustenance at dawn
E-ndearing at the bird feeders
R-oyal cardinal and his wife

Premium MemberFebruary-Shadow Acrostic

Frozen drifts of snow will soon melt upon the high bluff
Ending Winter's hold, in time for warmer days of reprieve
Blooming will be a tulip, sprouted from a dormant bulb
Ring-Necked Doves will happily coo with joyous fervor
Unbound we'll be from the fear of catching the dreaded flu
Anxious for temperate weather to green lawns and flora
Relinquishing its seasonal right as a month of chilly weather
Yielding, February will step aside, for Spring is on its way

When all begin their meditation
In the cold and chill of night
No one knows better than Nature
The regrowth of strength and might
Even the frigid Fall winds
Render their breath to sprite

Premium MemberFrost

Freezing conditions, the ground’s now icy white,
Roads may be slippery, so take care on that hill.
Oh look, Jack Frost came to visit us last night,
Seeing feathery ice patterns gives me such a thrill,
That drop in temperature, brrrr I feel the chill!

Premium MemberMind Sets

Scarcely had dawn lit the town… 
Nighties hugged tight around…
Onlookers at an overnight transformation…
Winter wonderland’s aspiration!

People light the fire and consider…
Let others go outside and take risks.
Only those truly dedicated few
Understand and act on loving neighbours, through
Getting everything prepared as they go…
Heavy clothing to protect from snow, they
Shovel roadways with their ploughs…
