A Winter Poem

By bluegypsea

drops of moonlight 
soak the newly fallen snow 
and tendrils of dark grey clouds 
pierce a clear night sky 
 
a soft, chilly breeze 
meanders through silhouettes 
of bare, broken trees 
ice hanging from fragile limbs 
 
all is still 
and silent 
awaiting the  
lonesome dawn 
 
stars have lost their 
pearly twinkle 
the muted amber glow 
cries cold tears of rain 
 
deafening silence beckons 
broken dreams once pursued 
now drowning in  
bleak despair

    Such affinity for Nature, the sense of sultry winter shines through in your imagery, I can almost hear the muted crunch of snow and the soft patter of icicles dwindling in the sun. Wonderfully captured, please, stay and grace us more. Scholar
