Snow like a whisper

Snow, falling like feathers of love

Snow like a Whisper

 

Snow like a whisper does fall from the sky

Silently finding its way

Morning does come in the blink of an eye

Nature to beckon the day

 

White fills the quiet with hope of a smile

Melodies that you might hear

Blanketing softy in porcelain style

A glow born of sun does appear

 

Tranquil endeavors to quell every whim

Lie on the lawn in repose

Forgotten meanings that now shall begin

Found each occasion it snows

 

Gentle its echo as we find retreat

Here by the warmth of the fire

No use descending on snow covered streets

Only our love is required

 

Unruffled seasons of splendor do shine

Muted the colors they bear

Normal these visions of our wintertime

Life without worry or care

Slower the pace of this plaid flannel world

Hectic the days of ago

Restful this morning to us has unfurled

Taking each step a bit slow

 

Nothing so urgent that now can not wait

Serenity finds to take hold

The heat of the fire the chill to abate

So warm inside when it’s cold

 

Pearlescent shimmering visions this day

Resting here safe in your love

Oh but to spend my life living this way

Bring forth the snow from above

This flows so nicely and paints a lovely picture. Though, right now, I sure hate snow. It's everywhere here.

Thank you Brittany

I love the soft flow of your poem Jack...almost like the whisper of the snow falling...and the rhyme is perfect. To be wrapped up with the one you love watching the snow fall - how beautifully romantic. A gorgeous poem, perfect for Valentine's Day!
