Ivory Snowflakes

Ivory Snowflakes

A Poem by Eric Cox

Ivory snowflakes fall from an ivory sky
beauty drifts in the air and our spirits climb high
beauty begins to carpet the grass and the trees
we are surrounded by an ivory ice breeze
we walk down the path with joy shining in our souls
Mourning Doves sing and their lovely haunting song glows
ivory snowflakes keep spiraling from the sky
the beauty of nature created from God's eyes
we toss snowballs at each other with playful smiles
our hearts are light and filled with wonder like a child's
squirrels and small birds chitter in this frosted land
we continue down the snow white path hand in hand
we reach the ivory painted meadow and sigh
beauty surrounds us and our spirits touch the sky
we make snow angels beneath Heaven's shining light
though near our golden years our souls glow young and bright
we create a snowman before heading back home
we are thankful for the beauty nature has shown
ivory snowflakes touch our hearts and frost the trees
creating a beautiful ivory white breeze.

As always, you paint a beautiful picture of this very cold season in nature. It seems even in the golden years we can remember making angels in the snow and how we enjoyed all the fun that snow provided for us and it does bring a smile.

This paints a very beautiful picture. I wish it would snow here. It's just raining, dull grey and raining. Your poem here is what I'm dreaming of. Nicely done!

Beautiful! I love every word. It's snowing here too. The snow is out of this world surreal to me.
