Essence of winter

As winters are settling in, I find them filled with soulful silences. Silences which speak to you, if you talk and listen to them. It shows you a great concourse of phantasmagoric shadows. The wind touches your skin and each cell of your body can feel it, making you realize that you are alive ! It is not really my favourite season , but dont you just love the slight chill in the air, that faint winter smell ? I love it for another reason- it helps me to write...good, bad, anything. ;) And it helped me yet again.

A night very fine, with a glass of wine

I stood near the fireplace

The window above, with plants of clover

Caught my gentle gaze

The fine dark sky, filled with fireflies

One came and sat on my window

And sang a song to me-the winter melody

Filling music in the sky

A flute played low, and asked me to go

go and follow the music

And all i saw, was falling snow

a blanket all over me

The view was great, polishing my fate

and the star shone in response.....

Abrupt ending isn't it ? For me it is not. But i leave up to you, to mak your own ending-happy, sad, comedy, romantic...anything. Use your kaleidoscopes ;)

Enjoy winter, cluttering of teeth, shivering you, hot chocolate and Christmas carols ! Cheers

Portico

Winter night and hazy view

Dark sky and I was thinking of you

Sitting under the porch with darkness all around

I closed my eyes and you were nowhere to be found

I searched for light in that gloom

And realized I was searching air in vacuum

A tear gently trickled down my cheek

The feelings inside my heart got very meek

I took my blanket to fight the cold

Which reminded me of your warm hold

Tired of the lonely state I was in

I absorbed all the sorrow within

I still visit the porch everyday

In a hope to blow that fog away

Dedicated to someone who rings me up when he stands under the porch
Thank you for being there ... :)
