I Count The Frosts Poem by Sandra Fowler

I Count The Frosts

Rating: 5.0


Snowflakes are falling like a gift of white.
The classic landscape burns incessant, bright.
Old panes picture, literally, scores of frost.
No single note of music has been lost.

I hold your thoughts across a world of space,
Watching the colors dance in my fireplace.
Your message came on wings of winter birds,
'True poets give themselves away in words.'

And I have chased my words in pursuit of knowledge of myself but I've followed your words for inspiration, kind poet. Uriah

A very romantic frost, the classic landscape that I miss here; In the music that transgresses space, I see them flakes, the colours...

The subject of this beautiful poem is obviously very dear to you Sandra. Love the contrast between the 'scores of frost' in your 'classic landscape' and the warmth and conviviality of the second stanza. I do believe that this wonderful internet shows us how distances of space and time become irrelevant when hearts are open. love, Allie ♥ ♥ ♥ ♥
