Fragile crystalline being

Ever knowing, ever seeing

Icy gray eyes, that find the cold

Hidden, in the winter fold

Of snowflakes, falling all around

Gathering, without a sound

A coat of white, your morning dew

Glistening in brilliant hue

A Storyteller’s Tale

A storyteller’s tale, once told in a book
Now sits on the shelf, in a lone dusty nook

He scribbled the words, on paper with pen
Let it dry for a moment, but suddenly, when

He returned to the paper, to finish his prose
The story was missing, and nobody knows

How something so precious, disappeared out of sight
So he put down his pen, and turned in for the night

He quietly closed, his creaking bedroom door
With smile on his face, he knew, evermore

For his words never left him, they’re there on his shelf
Bound by the story, he keeps to himself

Entwined

If somehow you should lose your way

And the trail you follow turns astray

Remember what I promise, true

To always be here, just for you

To hold your hand when life gets tough

To comfort you, through days so rough

To make you know you matter so

To find your way, let love bestow

The dreams you thought you left behind

Our dreams together, now entwined

Frosted Shadows

#poetry, cold, dorindaduclos.com, entity, ghosts, light, night, Night Owl Poetry, poems, shadows, spirits, Winter

Frosted windows hide the light

Of shadows moving in the night

You glance to see a face so near

Blink and watch it disappear

This entity is peeking through

Looking, seeking, only you

Making its way o’er the threshold

A spirit lost in winter’s cold

Distant Dream

Why not me, instead of she

The one you long to forever see

With loving eyes, and lips divine

You chose another, over mine

I long to feel your sweet caress

As bodies, together, gently press

With passion, lovers in the night

Together still in morning light

Yet I will never be the one

To hold you when this day is done

My dream, a distant fantasy

Of what true love was meant to be
