Winter's Moon

Winter's Moon

 

The night air

so brisk

flows from my lips

steaming

 

The moon

bright

glowing

in the stillness of night

 

I look

across the

snow covered

fields

 

The moon's reflection

glistens on the snow

like a white

frozen lake

 

In the calm

of darkness

beauty

cries out

 

Only to those

who stand

in awe

see it's glory

I wrote this poem several years ago when living in Glyndon, MN.  I was in our patio, late at night with a full moon - looking across the field that "glistened" after a light rain upon the white snow.  It was so beautiful.....
