The Cold Embrace
I sit inside, under the sheet, in bed. The cold grasps the window with mighty hands, Tap, tap, tapping against the pane it said

She calls to me in the breeze Sending whispers of who I am As I'm high in the trees My feet caught in the sand I feel her beneath my fingers

Sol
Gradations of orange and blue, caught my eyes over blinding white beams of opposing headlights. I paused my schedule for a few minutes to stop and stare in awe of you. Because when I am unable to greet you at light. I must witness your sweet kiss as you whisper, “I will return, sleep tight.”

Green serene. As I lay, among the lily spray, new and fresh, innocence at rest. Yearning for knowledge I go searching, learning.

Pagan Poems
One thing I love about Facebook memories is that it shows me the poems I forgot I wrote. Here are two that came up today 21st December 2018. They were written for the Pagan festival of Yuletide/Winter Solstice.

A Wonderful White World
The frigid wind twisted playfully around me, It was the Christmas season finally! A snowy blanket covered the fields white!

Beauty in the Forest
Nimbly I jogged along Far beneath the wild bird song. The trees around me big and tall I felt so small, like nothing at all!
