January Poems

I do not love you except because I love you;
I go from loving to not loving you,
From waiting to not waiting for you
My heart moves from cold to fire.
...

We have tested and tasted too much, lover-
Through a chink too wide there comes in no wonder.
But here in the Advent-darkened room
Where the dry black bread and the sugarless tea
...

One must have a mind of winter
To regard the frost and the boughs
Of the pine-trees crusted with snow;
...

January brings the snow,
makes our feet and fingers glow.

February brings the rain,
...

January 1912, Mzansi brought forth a child 
In a harsh political climate 
Destined to free her people
Bound to cruel Fate
...

It is dark, no moon, no light
Just darkness, a starless sky
The wind blows, the waves break
A single firefly passes by
...

The days will rally, wreathing
Their crazy tarantelle;
And you must go on breathing,
But I'll be safe in hell.
...

Your sterling love
Is like a gigantic sponge
That absorbs the fountain of my pain
Soaking it invisibly, awakening my soul
...

January jumps about
in the frying pan
trying to heat
his frozen feet
...

I have a white rose to tend
In July as in January;
I give it to the true friend
Who offers his frank hand to me.
...

She comes out to sing
to express happiness
from her house of
paper, straw and grasses
...

Our Christmas gift
From God's only Son
Star-filled nights
Sun-filled days

In January everything freezes.
We have two children. Both are she'ses.
This is our January rule:
One girl in bed, and one in school.
...

My shadow --
I woke to a wind swirling the curtains light and dark
and the birds twittering on the roofs, I lay cold
in the early light in my room high over London.
...

Sometimes at night I hear small birds lament.
Dark notes that seem to second moon's descent.
Cold is the color of a deep regret,
An etude perfected by winterset.
...

.
Winter is past
At last! At last!
Life has begun
...

An orphan child
sitting on a platform
ignoring the sound of fast crossing trains
and trains halting late at the station

True Path Need To Well Lead

Come on dreaming
...

when you go to fish
go fishing for the finest kind
which good anglers always do.
...

January, a canvas of frosty white,
Where the new year begins its flight.
With winter's breath upon the air,
January whispers, 'Change is near.'

Languishing [[ adjective: failing to make progress or be successful ]]
is not a pleasant 'boat' to be in, & being a 'languishing poem' is stressful,
....for sure!

'Se siente, se siente, Che esta presente …'
—a sentiment still echoed throughout much of Argentina and the rest of the Spanish-speaking American nations
...

Of fealty's Apollo at my door her Love,
needest no dark that by dark bewails the night,
of eyes so blind beyond the sunrise;
e'ery departed look to my shipwrecked dreams
...

I've seen a jolly Christian man, a guy who's on TV,
And can he smile? My word, he can! Sometimes he smiles with glee.

And if the viewers need to ask, how come he grins all day?
...

January 2022, I wonder why the weather so blue cold and chill, life I feel has no thrills Wish the blanket wraps me i have lost all my poetic powers as all of you see Lord give me strength to move on and face the cold let me find the energetic powers to be bold
