Death of Winter

woundedheart


Notice of absence from woundedheart
Sorry due to personal reasons i will be absent for an unknown period of time
Thank you for your friendship and may the Lord watch over you all and keep you safe. ❤❤❤❤

As winter nights, by warm fires lights,
so easily passed to spring.
No more to hold or to enfold,
as midnight church bells ring.

Now buds at last pronounce its past
snowdrops turning to dust.
The diamonds on the sill have gone,
and no more leaves of rust.

The flower beds are sprouting heads,
the flowers soon returned.
But my heart aches, for winter breaks,
and our love like fire burned.

Migrating birds replace soft words,
as grass again now grows.
But oh the springs, such sorrow brings,
but my ache never shows.

For in that time your love was mine,
and in the spring you left.
Now here i stand, flowers in hand,
and weep my love bereft.

Just I alone clean up your stone,
and tidy up your plot.
For winter bloom, was gone too soon,
but never be forgot.

    Good write WH.
    Could relate to bereavement. A friend has to fly across Canada, as a relative passed away recently sadly. He lives the other side of Canada.

        Lovely lines of the approaching spring but with sadness conveyed in a gentle manner. It's so nice to read. I wish I could write like this. Plenty to learn from the poets here.
