Snow

by Abbie   Nov 16, 2012


When winter winds blow
hedges to and fro
and flapping crow
has gone to his home
long ago

Then I know
Snow
will quietly fall, grow
overnight higher than houses below
stop the stream in its flow
and so
in a few hours, show
itself mans ancient foe
Oh
how slow
is the silent gathering of snow.

    This is a very beautiful piece, be proud of yourself and keep writing.

    I liked this part in particular:

    "Then I know
    Snow
    will quietly fall, grow
    overnight higher than houses below
    stop the stream in its flow"

    Your poem flows like a stream 5/5
