Michael Peterson Poems

The days and the years have been cloudy
Many depressing moments along the way
I journeyed the world around
Running from my past
...

Woke up early today
A different Christmas Eve
The tears flowing, memories of you
Dreaming of a White Christmas
...

Taking a stroll down the street
Looking at the many houses
Some full, a few empty
The yards all so different in their own way
...

Sun is raising slowly in the east
The dew forming on the lawn
The sounds of birds waking up
Chirping to a new day
...

Driving down the snowy road
Seeing the kids out in the snow
Seeing them play, Blows
Making snowmen, forts and tunnels
...

The cloud floating in slowly
The temperature is dropping fast
The wind picking up
A cold winter night is falling upon us
...

Whether it's coming or going
A hug and a kiss is always there
The tighter your arms around me
The more I feel your love
...

The mood is right, the lights are dim
The radio is on, Christmas carol playing away
Holiday spirit in the air
Why doesn't it feel right?
...

Temperatures dropping quickly
Clouds rolling in heavily
The brisk wind starting to pick up
An early December cold front coming in
...
