New Snowfall

New Snowfall

A Poem by Kathy Van Kurin
"

Winter wonder with coffee

"

New Snowfall


Crystal winds in bright snow whirl winds.


Like arrows Fir tree spires point to the heavens.


Every feathery bough gives itself away in its own unique dance.


Below zero and precious song birds are quiet.


Hidden, they wait within dormancy. Frog chorus still.


Spring waits its turn. Winter knows it reigns.


Morning peace hangs within heart beat interlude of cool mist mystery.


Voices muffle here inside this Coffee house retreat midst little village.


Generators keep the lights on. Sky lantern looks through cloud window.


It is time to live, to breathe, and to work.  Life is worked; given, shared.


I claim this beginning fresh.  In new snowfall Douglas Firs point to heaven.

Winter is coming to my Michigan soon. Been an easy Fall and December coming. A bit of snow, so far. I like when the snow covered my world. A strange innocence dear Kathy. I liked your story in the poetry. The days of Winter seem slower. Thank you, my friend, for sharing the amazing poetry.
