Snow Song Poem by Smoky Hoss
Snow Song
January, mourning.
No sun. No warmth.
Only snow, falling slowly, as if
piano keys
being pressed, softly.
A song forms into clouds
and descends
as gently tumbling music,
gracefully covering all
with a pause, a touch, a hush.
Trees dare not move,
lest they lose their blanket
of pure comfort.
Birds remain still,
make nary a noise, lest they
miss the whisper-chorus,
drifting in from beyond.
I hold my breath, and listen...
to all of creation paying rapt attention
to nature's musical,
a moving piano like concerto
of gently falling snow
in serene pianissimo.
Smoky, I enjoyed this poem, the enchantment of it, once I got past the first two lines. Did you mean to write 'mourning' rather than morning? And the second line made me think more negative was coming—but no so. -Glen
Glen, yes. Even in mourning there is some beautiful 'music' to be discovered.
I fell under the spell of your Snow Song and summoned a million stars to shine on it and also faved it for my future delight
