Winter Night

booklover's picture

Purple clouds
Hanging low
Casting shadows
On the snow
Footsteps ring
Starlight shimmers
Darkness sings
Silver glimmers
Not quite night
But not quite day
Not yet fright
But not okay
Frozen ice
Velvet sky
Scurrying mice
Snowflakes fly
Loudly silent
Quite confused
Pine trees bent
Skies amused
No one knows
What to believe
Nothing makes me
Want to leave
Utter midnight
Cold winds whine
Purple clouds
In silver lined

My inspiration...

My inspiration for this again came from a confusing dream I had about winter and snow.

Love It!

Booklover, your poems are great! So descriptive, they made me feel like I'm there. I can't wait for the next one! I really like the line
"Loudly silent
Quite confused
Pine trees bent
Skies amused"

I can actually imagine silence being loud and skies being amused by bending pine trees...
