Do not misconstrue

Tigers, placidly laying

The wild is untamed

Crystallized

A raindrop, frozen

Within time

Warms the soul

Though its delicate beauty

Swiftly melts away

We daydream of warmer times

Sand between our toes

Colleen’s poetry challenge for this week is synonyms only!  Her two words are End and Hurry.  Check out Colleen’s blog to find which forms of poetry are acceptable for this challenge.  Have fun!

Written as a Double Etheree, my synonyms are Fragment and Bustle.


A
Crystal
Flurries down
Rushing to meet
A man made of white.
Top hat upon his head
Eyes of coal, a carrot nose,
Mittened hands, endless snowball fights
Days of youth, returning within us.
The bustle of the holiday season.
The coming together of family,
Dearest to our hearts, celebrating
A thankfulness, many blessings
Each one, a mere fragment, of
Years gone by, call to mind
All who have gathered
Bringing with them
Tidings of
Great joy,
Love

If we forget hope

When our world is too intense

Life becomes a mess
