Snowy Offering



Blanket of powder
pristine and white
falling so gently
in morning light.

Snowflakes
they tickle
they rest on my cap
all others are sleeping
a long winter nap.

A lonely deer wanders
the path that I see
I track her footsteps
a comfort to me.

Sprinkle, its coming
snow settles down
all nestled in
our small town.

  1. Your pictures are great, but your poetry is inspiring and moves my spirit every time I read your poetry. It truly serves the soul a bowl full of needed inspirational porridge. I light up every time I see that you have a poem to share.
