Snowflake Wishes

~ still no snow at the beach ~

I hung my hope upon a star

in skies of midnight blue

As winter rose and snowflakes fell

the star, my wish, it flew!

 

Lie still, lie still, my hopeful heart

as the sky began to glow

in flecks of light, so pure and white

Lie still, but let it snow

 

I dreamt a dream so full of hope

where a wish, it came true

I woke to a white wonderland

The star, my wish, it grew!

So lovely, MsJewel. We must never give up on a dream or desire we hold dear. For to give up on it is, in a sense, to cease living and to cease feeling fully alive. Very, very well done, my friend. And I hope to post something this weekend. I've been a slacker as of late:)

[MsJewel]

Thanks so much Rebecca. Happy New Year! :) Julie

I hope when your muse gets tired of hanging out on the beach in sunny southern California, She comes to visit me up here and help me with my winter poetry.

This is simply exquisite.

wonderful, Julie...Right up my childish street....A short classic for kids to read over and over during Christmas and into the deep winter

it was as if I wrote it myself, but that could never be, as we are so differently the same

Were I the sky to hang your stars upon, in gleaming brilliance, strands and braids.
Would come to pass upon my canvas, the hopes and dreams of wishes made.

For you....Merry Christmas Ms.J. :)
