Snow Flower

December, like a snow flower
 you touch with your cold fingers,
I surrender myself like a lost lover.
Your cold fingers playing violin
Like snow flowers showering;
Nostalgic dreams afloat
Of sunshine and rain,
They evoke moments,
Those pebbles I kept
On and on, building thoughts
Thoughts that never perish
Thoughts that make me…
I sleep in your cold hands,
December you play the songs
 of snow flowers...

 I sleep losing myself in you.

  1. December can be a cold month in the northern hemisphere; but it's not the coldest. I love the image of December's cold fingers playing violin - that's not going to be a cheerful tune, is it?

  6. Lovely personification of December. Our December is indeed cold, 11 degrees F this morning. I'm not sure I would welcome a lover that cold but there is something so enticing in your poem.

  7. I think I enjoyed that kind of December quite a lot.. there is a tenderness in those cold notes... and I agree with Tony.. that December can be a little bit too cold... lovely piece..

  8. I feel like images like a dream. Frozen in a hushed, frosted world. So much hope that the rise will finally rise for the thaw.
