Snow like a whisper

Whispers of white fall on my heart

 

 

Snow like a Whisper

by jack

 

Snow like a whisper does fall from the sky

Silently finding its way

Morning shall 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

 

Stillness shall flourish in peace at this hour

Cold it will harness the reins

Glorious partners to stay but a while

Here on this earth to reclaim

 

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 to urgent that now can not wait

Serenity finds to take hold

The heat of the fire we two do migrate

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 is my favorite of yours so far--just added it to my library. The title especially, in itself is supreme poetic potency I could just repeat it over and over, like breathing.

[Jack...]

If you only knew how much your comments have made me smile. I am humbled and flattered and oh so thankful for your kind words.

Snow brings a lot of work for some

And some simply sit by the fire

Enjoying the warmth of another

Well done ... Jazz :)

[Jack...]

Thank you so very much.

[J. J. Nightingale]

[AYVID N]

When we have love, the snow reflects all the colors of the rainbow in an incandescent white world of warmth and shine.

Each word of this poetry transported me to a place snow white yet warm and dazzling and full of love. Thanks for the virtual treat Jack.

[Jack...]

Thank you so very much. I truly appreciate your kind words.

[VALORMORE DE PLUME]

What a gift you have. You've tied the snow with a bow. Sure beats a snowball with a rock in it.

[Jack...]

Thanks Valormore, it sure does.

[Frieda P]

You've almost convinced me that I like the stuff again. Seriously, this is gorgeous, it's so tranquil, I love...'nothing to urgent that now can not wait', snow seems to slow down time.

You always give a new fresh perspective with your poetry. Always a lovely read Jack, another beauty.

[Jack...]

Thank you Sweet Frieda, Finding your comments always makes my mornings brighter.

[Emerald Seas]

Beautiful again, Jack. With a soft, cascading melody just as your snow falls dreamily down from the sky. Nothing like staying by a warm fire, glass of wine, and snuggled next to a loved one watching big white flakes scatter the earth with a blanket of white wonder :)

[Jack...]

Happy you enjoyed it Dear Sera. I don't get much snow where I am so this was from memory. :)

[Marie]

I find it hard to write of snow. Your verse gives it an image and sound...

[Jack...]

Thank you so much Marie.

[.......]

Really like your style, your write reads so smooth.
Like the depth of love in this, it's wonderful.

[Jack...]

Thank you so much for your kind and flattering words.

[Holly Mason]

what wonderful descriptions...you are having a horrible weather day down there it looks like...the flannel line made me laugh my daughters and I don't know what to think of all of it
and to spend our lives wrapped in snow love would be cold but comfortably warm*)
thank you for sharing

[Jack...]

Thanks so much Holly. Actually the weather wasn't to bad, at least not in San Antonio, we had some drizzle the past couple of days but the sun has come out this morning and it is very warm. Do y'all have snow again? I only write of snow based on memories of my childhood in New Jersey, we haven't had snow here since 1985.

[Holly Mason]

snowing right now 3-4 inches last night...still like it though all such an adventure the salted roads actually went off the road the other night was only doing 20 so just a slight slip

[Jack...]

Honestly it sounds like fun to me too. Stay warm and be safe. Build a snow man and name him Jack...ok? :)

[Holly Mason]

sure he will sport bottle caps for eyes...and he will hold a sign..clear view seen by all*)

[Jack...]

he sounds very handsome...make sure an take lots of pictures. :)=
