Winter Woods

Whirlpool

The snow fell softly, gently,

On her bare legs and feet.

 

She was very still, very quiet,

And I heard the blood beating in my ears.

 

The wind blew and snowflakes flew,

A thousand tiny teeth to bite me through,

Till all that laid between us was white,

A world of nothing but snow.

        such a smooth flow
        uniquely voiced, its lack of context
        adds-to rathe than: distracts-from, I think
        wonderfully creative, thanks for sharing

          Thank you! I usually like to write poems short, long ones are imo very hard to write. I admire writers who can smoothly compose long poems.
