Wakeful Thrill
For the Frosted Verse Challenge (Writers Block had me imprisoned, I bought poetry books to help me along the way; I hope this brings you joy and chills, and I hope it helps you to appreciate the simple things)
Became one with the fog,
The sky feels near.
Accumulate tears in frosted layer,
Dim lights at dawn;
Earths chilling stare.
*
Nature comes alive, through the dreamy sphere,
Hunting leaves bejewelled with ice;
Witness beauty through heavens eyes,
Frost bite stings the leafless giant.
*
An hour of quiet the world stands still,
Dreaming of snow and frostbite sting.
The fresh breeze bring a wakeful thrill,
Now winter comes, the earth will sing;
**
The tune of angels… ding.
**
Summer afar, brings dusted stars,
A twinkle reflected when light hits all;
A time to wish,
A time to stall,
A time to fill;
Your stockings…with winters chill.

The steps to losing a child
Step One: Lose a child. Not what anyone wants to happen and nothing you can do to change it, but you can go through steps to becoming happy again. You can go through steps to loving again. You can go through steps to become a new you because after losing a child you will never be the same person you once were.

Love of you described it so beautifully. Amazing poem.
Good work for I felt the icy feel of the winter season.
This is a lovely entry to the Frosted challenge, Caitlin. Of the many wonderful lines my favorites were The sky feels near and your exquisite build to your finale - A time to wish, A time to stall, A time to fill. Reminds me of one my favorite passages in Ecclesiastes that begins To every thing there is a season…. A time to be born, a time to die (etc).
This was so gorgeous!!
Komal has the right word this is just a very beautiful poem on Winter and its pleasures. Good work.
G-O-R-G-E-O-U-S! Go girlie Go!
Whoaa! Caitlin Your poem is absolutely beautiful—it captures the quiet magic of winter in such a vivid, almost enchanting way. The lines about the frosted leaves and the “tune of angels” bring out both the beauty and chill of the season perfectly. It’s like a gentle invitation to feel winter’s mystery and calm, and it left me feeling truly connected to that quiet, dreamy winter morning they describe.❄️❤️
