~a villanelle


Silent White



Sugared crystal snowflakes float in silent white
As the golden glow of your window pulls me closer
Footsteps lay upon a blanket pure this whispered night

Home bound toward your warm firelight
With staggered step I plot my course
Sugared crystal snowflakes float in silent white

The icy slice of bitter winds whip and bite
Casting haunting shadows over me
Footsteps lay upon a blanket pure this whispered night

Midnight winter sky full of stars so bright
A stilled silence on this hushed wonderland
Sugared crystal snowflakes float in silent white

And fingers bundled into glove so tight
The journey ever winding nearer to you
Footsteps lay upon a blanket pure this whispered night

Pulled into the sanctuary of your open door
I am held now in your snug embrace
Sugared crystal snowflakes float in silent white
Footsteps lay upon a blanket pure this whispered night

Ah Pretty Lady a Villanelle.
Showing off more of your beautiful talent with this enchanting
story of snow and a journey to a warm safe place full of joy and love.
Excellent poem again, well done and well written.
