A Winter-White Wish. Poem by Fay Slimm

A Winter-White Wish.

Rating: 5.0


Fierce, glittering winter-bright Moon,
Lighting this white, mysterious world.
Shine throughout night, he'll be home soon
And need your lamp to keep unfurling
Each rise and fall of glistening
Snow-bound field and hidden lane.
I'll stand with candle, - listening.
Please guide his way back here again.

The image of moonlight reflected in the snow evokes thoughts of peaceful beauty- artfully stated with sumptuous language and fluid rhythm.

Reminded me of a time many years ago when I used to walk home along a tree clad winding lane. The moon used to cast many shadows but gave me light to show the way. A lovely poem, of a winter landscape. Bob
