Winter observations

January 15, 2010 at 3:48 pm (Seasons, snow, Winter) ()

Winter,
winter,
winter,
is here.

Snow,
trickles from clouds
and touches,
tickles,
my face.

It’s white
a sight,
all white,
eyes dazed
from rays
on sunny days.

Winter is
boldly cold,
and
meekly insistent
on a bit of above zero
now and then.

Yellow Boots

April 3, 2009 at 3:49 pm (montreal, Seasons, snow, spring)

I park walk
enjoying spring
mildness
as I pass by greys, browns, muddy greens.

As i eye the park
Yellow Boots comes into view
lighting the whole landscape up.
Her boots whispering spring is here,
yellow rudder made up of
daffodils and spring sun.

On the 15th day of Christmas

I was still for a while;

like snow on a windless day,

like Shepherds watching their sheep,

like a father and mother watching their newborn baby.

On the tenth day of Christmas
snow
and
snow,
ice,
white,
all is covered,
sparkling 
fairy land.
Transforming
Montreal
from dull hues
to bright white.

Flakes in the trillions have flocked to Montreal upon hearing that winter had come to that great city. Said one flake-’it is just how i imagined it would be-cold and culturey.’

All the snow
is frustrating…to drive through,
beautiful…to look at;
loveliness
clothed in difficulties-
Christmas:
God,
clothed in flesh.
Everything needs clothing.

On the ninth day of Christmas

snow is falling

coating Montreal

in cold flakes;

colouring all in sight, white,

and leaving

Christmas feelings

inside hearts.
