The flowing blend of snow

poem by: Robert Kohlhammer
Written on Jan 21, 2017

I a scape  of snow 
Oversmitten but cold to  know 
Festive in  a candle´s glow 
In a ball do I roll
Footprints quickening   slows
Scarfs phalanx plough a reindeer  fallow
Grapple the sprig of ice log glazed  hollow 
Blisfully a blizzard brows furrow
Echo mountains vertigo 
Hedgerows between hibernating burrows
Muffling  winter´s audio
Outside the freeze framed window.

Worry creeps along the waves, slow focus in murky depths. Then crash upon desires it craves, treasure troves in sunken wrecks. Cross the heart with prayers A lone journey intercepts, dreams surf on tidal sprays, to be rescued ... Read more
