A Winter's Kiss
A diamond glittered carpet frost
upon the ground at early dawn
awakes the earth begins the day
a shimmering caress of nature's hand
The bitter chill upon your face
alights your cheeks with ice cold flush
lungs aspire to deeper depths
exale a mist of silvery breath
A robin plump with brest of red
rests on a branch that's bare and still
scarlett berries in hedgerow glow
like gaping sparrows tiny hearts
Cobwebs drape best dress the trees
a vision of silky crochet lace
ice creates in secret spots
to surprise footsteps abound
Icy wind so quiet and raw
bites through land and bones
whispers to the sky "be sure"
to deliver a season's guilty pleasure
Clouds above now dense and grey
promise of a first flake of snow
to fall and meet the awaiting earth
and preciously lay as 'Winter's Kiss'
