Poem 3: February '23 (The Beginning)
This final month of cold
A test of brevity
Loose ends form neat knots
Carefree, contented
My tears dry in the sunshine
Freedom is in sight
Defrosted my inner self
Just for it to freeze again
Pure pearls of clarity are what remain
A test of brevity
Loose ends form neat knots
Carefree, contented
My tears dry in the sunshine
Freedom is in sight
Defrosted my inner self
Just for it to freeze again
Pure pearls of clarity are what remain

Haiku - Spring Comes
grey clouds filled with rain.
snow still lying on the ground.
anticipation!
snow still lying on the ground.

Haiku - Winter Sleep
an icy wind blows
a leaf over crusty snow,
animals slumber
a leaf over crusty snow,
animals slumber

Poem 2: January '23 (The End)
Solar rays return
Soulful haze, music plays
The day adjourns
Branches weave about
Nests rest in the cross sections
Careful, yet dangerous
Nine, natural days left
Lose track of time
Meticulous rhythms set
A ball of rubber bands, stretch to unwind
Soulful haze, music plays
The day adjourns
Branches weave about
Nests rest in the cross sections
Careful, yet dangerous
Nine, natural days left
Lose track of time
Meticulous rhythms set
A ball of rubber bands, stretch to unwind

Haiku - A Winter Blast
a harsh, bitter wind
blows across a frozen field,
a rabbit shivers.
blows across a frozen field,
a rabbit shivers.

Dear Summer,
how quickly you ran ahead of me
long legs so beautifully kissed by the sun racing through fields of flowers
warm grass in all shades of emerald
cool rocky rivers
beckoning bare feet to wade
glowing in the hot sun
her dress drenched
in summers perfume
door ajar
autumn came almost overnight
blowing cold breezes
through the eves
whistling around corners
encouraging the need
for soft warm comfort
fire is sparked
in a glowing chimney
black charred with age ...

The Hypothermic Heart at 6 am
weary are the willows which
have been forgotten by trellis of ice
ambulances of snow-laked slate roof
bandage desires to guttering flames of a red dress
lonely is, suddenly, the surname bequeathed to
my world from a window closed to human touch
stained glass (he)art reflects mausoleum of unsent letters
memoirs are worth the snow of wordless paper sheets
luminescent air splinters iron and the icy sea
mist seduces the shore line, trawled snow-dust allows
virgin footprints to become the first blunt pen...

Sunny, Sunny Days
winter sunny days
lovely sunny, sunny days
and fleecy lambs graze
high mountain in blue haze
and shepherds laid back, they laze
in winter the sun shines
on the green forest of pines
and when the weather is fine
then, all the joys are mine
winter has own smiles
the warm spells in cold whiles
and the muse then beguiles
to verse, in the vernal styles
mild is the air, Sol is bright
a face sending peace and light
with tender feelings and might
there are no worries within sight
carpe diem,...

December Delight
Winter's icy grip
Frosted branches, sparkling white
Nature's diamond kiss
Frosted branches, sparkling white

Where Poesy Resides.
Oh! how the view is seizing !!
When the sun is rising
And the Earth is praising
The Beauty of the lord
When Summer is blazing
And the heat is dazing
Cheerful cicadas sizzling
Arpeggios tunes on the cord
Flat meadows where lazing
Herds and cattles grazing
Sheperds never stressing
Keeping zen eyes on the herds
And then comes Autumn
Acid and sour like lemon
Bearing a languid boredom
A dirge sung post motem
Time for a walsing butterfly
Like a happy flower passing by
The emerald...
When the sun is rising
And the Earth is praising
The Beauty of the lord
When Summer is blazing
And the heat is dazing
Cheerful cicadas sizzling
Arpeggios tunes on the cord
Flat meadows where lazing
Herds and cattles grazing
Sheperds never stressing
Keeping zen eyes on the herds
And then comes Autumn
Acid and sour like lemon
Bearing a languid boredom
A dirge sung post motem
Time for a walsing butterfly
Like a happy flower passing by
The emerald...

The Wild Side of Tame
two figures
waiting patiently
for the whisper swish
of a sliding door
rush of cold
upon entering
their eyes bright
their coats glistening
tiny diamonds
gathering
at my feet
beautifully wild
and tame
waiting patiently
for the whisper swish
of a sliding door
rush of cold
upon entering
their eyes bright
their coats glistening
tiny diamonds
gathering
at my feet
beautifully wild
and tame
