Sweet White Rose

White snow accompanies
my morning musings
        written in blue serenity
poems of sapphire night skies
crystal stars and a milky moon
        surreal and serene

    I write new visions of spingtime
of rising dawns lining the horizon
in blue and white colored dreams

nature is found in cosmic pose
    adding splendor to spring fever
        pure as the sweet white rose

          a time for lovers beneath
            a sky of azure blue to say
              I do~ I suppose

This poem made me think of my childhood. I grew up in Alberta, Canada, and winter's can get to -40 there. So often, people complain about the cold, the ice, the darkness, and say how much they want the warm back. and don't get me wrong... there is plenty about those seasons that I love, obviously.
But there is such a majestic beauty about winter. The snow can look like diamonds, hoar frost makes everything look as if it's been coated in icing sugar, and when it's a full moon, it makes the night so bright, as it's light is bouncing off of the snow, and you can see almost perfectly, an effect that (obviously) doesn't happen in the summer.
This brought up some Canadian winter nostalgia for me :) thank you so much for this short, but glorious poem

I like your musings; they are so very vivid, except haven't we had enough snow? ; I think we all have spring fever now, waiting patiently for that rose to bloom; Waiting for dawn to break; a lovely time for lovers to smooch under a clear sky. Wonderful imagery.
Best, B.

so romantic. and interesting how one thing can be in front of us, and yet we write of something totally opposite...the mind workings of a poet.

I think Sylvia Plath would have loved this poem...
she loved that azure blue.
