Love shall keep us warm

For all of my friends in the North East U.S.

 

 

Love shall keep us warm

 

Clouded scarves of winter skies

Woolen wings on tempered sighs

Nature wears her white disguise

Mounting on the field

T

Laced along the bitter cold

Futures that have been foretold

Endless phrases painted bold

And our lips are sealed

T

Frozen links of glistened feel

Piled deep as to conceal

Left alone in what is real

Bracing for the storm

T

Though inside a fire roars

With the one that I adore

Let it snow forever more

Love shall keep us warm

 T

i love this poem! you conjure up the white landscape in all its glory with your words and your ending twist is adorable. When you're inside with the one you love before a fire, the cold and snowy weather only serves to accentuate the feeling warmth. Stay snug! :)

Just what I needed on this snow filled day. Quite cold and windy here, so your luverly poetry is like a warm hug on the page to read today. It's a stunner and a keeper Jack.

Frieda, my sweet friend, thrilled this one may have provided you a little warmth on this cold day in in your part of the country. You are always so kind to me...I appreciate you.

A beautiful poem Jack. I love the form - it is much like the Zejel, which is one of my favorites. Your rhyme is so wonderful and not forced which makes the poem flow beautifully. Love it!

This is such an awesome poem. Just the first stanza alone is amazing to take in. I love poems about winter and this is worthy of being one of the best. Excellent job.

I am sitting among the remanents of a blizzard. It can be very cozy and comforting when you are warm. Hope it's sunny and 70 where you are today. ; )

Not quite Anne, but close. Thank you so much. I see winter has found you again and I hope it is you who are warm my friend.
