Snow

Snow

How silently the snow descends,
Like tiny angel wings.
And kisses lightly every branch,
So lovingly it clings.

It clothes the earth in radiance,
And a purity  serene.
No spot can mar the perfect white,
Of God's own winter scene.

He shook the pillows out above,
Where heavenly heads find rest.
Sent the feathers gently down,
To find an earthly nest.

The flakes come thick and faster,
Now swirling to and thro.
I gaze entranced, it's wonderful!
So sit and watch the snow.

Dedicated to Brian and Pauline.

Jim many thanks and truth be told this is one I put on here a while back and tweaked a tad and brought it forward so that two good people I dedicated it to could find it easier and then read and share with their grandchildren for I said I'll upload it at 21.00 P.M here now in Cardiff. Good people both.
And I'll read your Kissing The Earth poem now sir and thank you again Jim.

Wow what a visual you gave me here! Oh I love looking at snow fall and how pretty it looks on the things. I think you captured this sensation wonderfully. Another lovely gift you generously shared
