Softly
it came
stealing slowly across the lawn
on whispers of wind
Slowly
it fell
floating gently down to rest
in a blanket of white
and there it now lies
in the dawn
in peace
in silence
in complete innocence and beauty
Softly
like new fallen snow
he came
And…I think I found the cover pic for book four. 🙂 Loved it as usual!
Thanks! I found the photo at National Geographic’s website. They allow amateurs to upload photographs. It was hard to pick just one, but I loved this photograph.
Beautiful – tranquil, peaceful, serene.
Thanks for the gift!
And now I want snow.
You’re welcome! i can’t help with the snow though. It’s another sunny, warm shorts and sandals day here.
Ahhhhh……Merry Christmas!
Merry Christmas to you, John!
Beautiful…just beautiful! Thanks Sandy.
You’re welcome! Thanks for all your comments and support!
Lovely poem. Merry Christmas!
Thank you! Merry Christmas, Bongo!
Lovely. The word ‘softly’, to start it with that – it just immediately created softness. A really lovely poem.
Thank you so much!
