Loving You In Winter Poem by Falling Awake

Loving You In Winter

Rating: 5.0

Rough manly lines and a stark striking blue
Jump out against the season's moody sky
Tracing your depths, my flesh colored anew
I'm jolted from sleep inside my mind's eye

Coaxed out winter's cloud, you enhance my hues
With vibrant layers cutting through the haze
Painting my world, Reframing all my views
Emptiness takes form as you shape the grays

Without you to sculpt some texture for me
I'd be consumed by the season's bleakness
Or I'd wash away in my flattened sea
But you save me, dripping with uniqueness

My vitality until I'm thawed through
I'll love you spring, summer, and fall too

COMMENTS OF THE POEM

Loved this poem on love, sensuality, and love (in that order) in the cold of winter. Enjoyed the gradations of imagery. Culminating in " My vitality until I'm thawed through.."
