winter green.

winter green

is a subtle newness

a paler colour

of hidden potential

and sleeping promise

a ghost of spring's 

vibrant lushness

hiding in unsuspecting places 

only dreamers know

how to find

the coloured flash 

i feel when 

your chilled fingers curl

warmly

round the nape of my neck

You create an ambience of colour... one that comes alive like a character in a novel... a life that hides and seeks in the shadows. Here is a sensual awakening of spring in the deepest dead of winter.

the seasons make us feel, or, they don't - if the chill yet promise of winter doesn't touch a person, then, nothing will

words leading to a deep thought .. lovely

This is the what I was talking about in my last review with a girls broken dreams. I love the hope and promise that the change in seasons brings and then the smell of impending summer hot on the heels. Lovely.

You write from a very peaceful place in your mind..your words almost smile down at me when i read them and it is a treat to read any of your poems..always.
