PostPoems Be Artistic. Be Creative. Be Inspired!

The melancholy of a drifting snow

As it paints the night and shadows below

Exposing the darkness for all to see

Shared with sadness this reverie

Winter lulling the senses to sleep

Colors of meadow now buried deep

 A canvas of white fading to gray

In somber of season life slips away

No moon or stars to soften this night

Tis the harshness of bitter cold and ice

As I cower at fireside awaiting dreams

Of blossoms sweet with kiss of spring
