Winters Long Nights IV

by Jad   Nov 18, 2010


The days furry settles,
uncovering a new world
filled with sorrow yet,
covered in spotless purity.

Animals ,scattered abroad,
look, beady eyed, at remnants
of the day now enveloped
in starry darkness.

The pale wonderment
has disappeared now,
leaving nature alone on its journey
withholding the glory of its light.

Still leaflets climb,
piercing the crusted white,
surviving and overcoming,
Winters Long Nights.

    Still leaflets climb,
    piercing the crusted white,
    surviving and overcoming,
    Winters Long Nights.

    I like this last stanza for it gives a message of perseverance; that no matter how hard or painful situations are we can overcome it! Very nicely penned!

    I like this series on Winter's night that you have done. Each one a different perspective on them. Nice images and the flow is good. Well done.
