~nian~ 2 Versions Poem by Sinnaminsun Sinnaminsun

Comes curling at back on rolling winds,
flanked by tidaled expanses...you appear.
Long you have waited in depths where eyes never see,
Stiring the undercurrents of winters past.

Awakes slumbered reprieve,
your desire’s fully baited, biting its presence into being.
Thoughts once idle, afix their gaze ashore.

Moving over curving land, baring breath and bone,
Strides holding steady.....
Soon they will know a new year’s begun.

Awakes slumbered reprieve,
Creeping depth where eyes never see
Stirring undercurrents of winter past,
Curl winter winds
Flanking tidaled expanses...You appear.

Desire fully baited,
Biting your presence into being
as thoughts once idle,
A'fix their gaze ashore.

Move curving land,
Baring breath and bone
Strides holding steady.....
Soon they'll know,
A new year’s begun.
