White Silences

I sit here in solitude
With thoughts of you
Memories of conversations
Between me and you
Of kind words and flowers
And green leaves on trees
Now gone forever
Taken by the breeze
Snow falls around me
Without a sound
Leaves follow closely
Floating softly to the ground
Not a breath can be heard
Not a voice, not a sound
In the silence of the forest
Solace can be found
I lose myself in memories
Of moments spent with you
In the cold white silences
Amidst softly falling snow.

Poem by Dianne D ... ♥

    Na szczęście przyroda się znowu obudzi i nie będziemy musieli tylko wspominać. Pozdrawiam. *** Fortunately, nature wakes up again and we will not have just mentioned. Yours

    This is beautiful. I can sense the silence of this freshly fallen snow. it can make for a contemplative mood.


    And to think it's not marred be yellow snow yet. (sorry, couldn't resist).

    Thanks dear Lee , yes a sad poem, even more so before my edit...
    "Teardrops cannot be heard
    as they fall softly to the ground
    in the silence of the forest".
    It is a sensitive poem about feelings and loss of hope using apsects of nature as metaphors.
    I hope you enjoyed it anyway?

Estoy muy agradecido de que tengo mi libertad, algo que nunca dan por sentado.
