The Plains lie still in the wintertime,
gathering drifts of a chance design.
The north wind shapes the curvaceous lines
that flatter the figures of the pines.
*
Whilst Beethoven played in the background,
snowflakes chaotically fluttered around;
scattering about to the glorious sounds,
as whirlwinds of violins touched and rebound.
*
Looking like gnats made of ice and snow,
landing with ease as the music slows,
then rising again with their hearts aglow
on turbulent gusts the trumpets blow!
*
Spinning around like a twister there,
charming their mates with crystal ware.
Sparkling now, they flit through the air,
awake, aloft, attuned and aware.
*
Oh, that we might be like snowflakes – each one rare,
light be thy burden, no weight to bear.
Dancing and twirling on through the air,
true lovers in flight without a care!

🙂 Thank you, Susie! 🙂
Awe…
I am touched. Nebraska. My roots, my life…my love. ~j~
I’m glad you liked it, Cheryl Ann.
It’s the least I could do for my home away from home.
Well, I left out Lincoln, but hey! There it is! 🙂
They say, when do snow in Nebraska
’tis a few days adrift from UK.
and I must say ‘thas turned a lot colder
since Beethoven had his say
So I wait for his snowflake flutter
to brew up a twister above
in which each soul will have utter
then melt in the arms of Love
😉 SWEET! 🙂
Awe! Ed, that was really nice!
🙂
Set in motion by Uncle Tree and in honour of the snowman!
Hadn’t a clue where it was going til we got there!
Quite enjoyed the subtle weave 😉
Beautiful! I admire the prayer at the end for each one of us to be unique….it’s what mankind was made to be, but it is so easy for us to forget…this is a great reminder.
🙂 Thank you, Susanna! I’m glad you caught my drift. 😉
Dearest Caroline,
Thy thoughts are divine
The thought that ye are mine
sets ablaze my sweet sunshine
and I melt as quickly as I am formed
from the clay and the snow thou hast warmed
I so love you! ❤ Thank you, honey chile! Huggerz, UT
Awww ❤ Thank you, luv! 🙂 Hugzz
