    Poem Commentary

    This was my first attempt at free verse.

    Winter

    How gently flakes drift
    like down feathers
    from angel wings
    embracing nature
    beckoning our hearts
    in a whisper that speaks
    winter has arrived.
    As the snow imparts its chill
    the land seduced
    succumbs to her bed of white
    where the only sound
    is the occasional cry
    of natures feathered eyes
    maintaining their sojourn
    wings of the wind
    lamenting while mother nature sleeps.

    A very graceful and eloquent write, moving as softly as the snow that dusts the trees. BEAUTIFUL!

    thank you sooooo much! I think you are the first to read this goober poem..

    Poetry is not a turning loose of emotion, but an escape from emotion.

    T. S. Eliot (1888-1965) American-English poet and playwright.
