Winter`s Moon

Shorter days

means darker nights

winter`s moon 

among the star`s lights

crisp and round

a large beacon

travelling the skies

in this frosty season

wondrous orb

bright winter`s sphere

shine down on earth

until dawn arrives here!

On a morning after the snow has fallen, you wake up to a brightness beaming through the curtains, and you just know the world is all wrapped up in its snow duvet.  Muffled silence.   I just love that feeling.

Muffled World

Waking up to total silence
a sense of bright deafness all around me
a world covered by a thick white duvet
that shines in through my bedroom window
muffling all the every day sounds
creating a stillness everywhere
a white blanket
of cotton wool
all about me on this early morning

stood on my back door threshold
surveying the white scenery that greets me
this world still wrapped in its duvet
that covers right to the horizon
suppressing the sounds from my senses
a calmness from all the stresses
a white softness
of fluffy towels
comforting me this early morning.

Snowflakes and Secrets

Cold wintry morning

land is carpeted in white

soft individual flakes

flutter down out of sight

each snowflake is different

formed from high up in the clouds

full of beauty in minuteness 

yet the earth, it enshrouds

flakes flitter free from on high

silent secrets hidden out of sight

locked in each tiny crystal

snowflakes and secrets, magical sight!

A goodly Christmas

is dawning on this earth

how merry and sweet are it`s pleasures

a season of gladness

and great merriment

memories created as treasures.

Christmas trees and candle light

makes this Christmas season bright

cheer and gladness may they bring

and close to you may good luck cling !

Christmas Angel

Sat at the top of the Christmas tree

little angel stands tall and proud

protecting all this household

over this Christmas time

Santa`s on his way

watchful Angel

happy kids

joyful

day

Home Coming!

as winds howl and snow blankets the land

the sky`s lit by millions of stars

one lonely figure travels one

bent against the weather

family on his mind

returning home

for Christmas

festive

time

🎄
