thick blanket of snow
snuggling the flowerbeds 
with a winter wrap

tiny snow angel
snowflakes kiss your rosy cheeks
white winter beauty

cold-cling of Winter
wrapped in sweaters, wound in scarves —
fashion for snowmen

one single snowdrop
pushes through earth’s icy shawl 
robin redbreast chirps

dark, grim sky and soul
          lone crow, flys all alone
          rain wet, liquid coal

snowflakes nose diving
like petals of white blossoms
winter's confetti

all the lights are blurred
a winter sky is falling~
snow on my eyelash

                                         flames of crystal ice
                                          the aura of purity - 
                                          backlit by sunlight

biting icy winds
thermal clothes protecting me
from the winter chill

snowflakes kiss our cheeks
winter blanket keeps us warm
hearts melt together

with sun as its spire

the peak is a cathedral. . .

winter’s glow is ours

winter thaw begins
snowdrops peeping through the snow
raising sleepy heads

softly falling hush -
a snowy blanket comforts
hibernating land

Upon icy lake

Snowy owl seeks nourishment –

    Craves a sip of spring

.                     Nomadic whispers 
                            North winds speak to the great plains
                                            Warnings of winter

Winter's frozen tears

Scattered on despairing ground 

Sparkling diamonds!

while winter weeks warmth 
wondrous weeping willows wilt 
wrens whistle wildly 

spring season soon starts 
sunflower seeds sprout slowly 
sparrows sing softly

quick change artist, Fall
dons her crimsons and yellows
as winter watches

winter moonlight

slips through louvered blinds -

reading between the lines

prints of our snowshoes

ending where the trail is crossed

by a cougar's tracks

snowflakes dance mid air
jealous sun melts chalk blanket
snowmen lose their heads

winter at the door
to say gradual goodbye
welcoming the spring

walk in countryside 
to bless the mind bless the soul
nature is teacher

frost-kissed flakes flutter
like butterflies in crisp air
scattering pearl mists

draped in milky white
of soft dazzling silk, land lies~
winter queen enthroned.

vivid green cedar
against winter's bare oak tree
red bird sits alone

sun hides in dark clouds
wind brings chills right to the bones...
icy branches hang

Broken Branch
         by Amy Swanson, 2008



Winter-gray tree branch
       Hangs low, stricken by the storm
               Broken... but alive.

Dark Forrest trees
Guard like Thor
As night falls

Winter spirits rise
Released from snow they dance, warmed
Weeping tears of mist


copyright Kristin Reynolds 2008

cold crystalline clouds
sparkling snowflakes slowly swirl
winter wonderland

deer tracks disappear 
'neath quieting falling snow -
a lone gray wolf howls

Snow is just a mask 
Regenerating earths face.
A special peeling.

brown gives way to green
winter surrenders to spring
death succumbs to life

smart  v formation
departing south for winter
food for the asking

in performance
whether I stay or leave -
the northern lights
