The true beauty of winter

Marvelled at Nature!

?

?

Before skating, Sister Beth and Sister Mary view the birds, scenery

Bright picturesque winter, the sun is nice, pleasing as can be

Sister Mary now sadly notices a coat hanger, litter and a rusted can

This kind of polluting is crudely senseless, just blame it all on man

?

"It’s sad that people don’t respect paradise, the joy that nature brings!"

They look around, winter is a lovely princess who delightfully sings

?

Across the ice, Sister Beth now points to a beaver’s den of great style

She closes her eyes to picture a beaver, he shows a big friendly smile

?

The daydream makes her laugh, she thinks of a beaver, amazingly smart

In her mind, that coat hanger was perfectly shaped into a stunning heart

?

Happy Valentine’s Day, February 14, 2010

Hope it’s filled with love, warmth and happiness!

A wonderfully enchanting poem! I absolutely love the imagery here: 'They look around, winter is a lovely princess who delightfully sings'. The world is so beautiful during winter; so delicate and quiet. Even as I write this, snowflakes are falling outside my bedroom window, so I can truly understand the beauty of your words and marvel at nature's majesty. Wonderful work =)

Interesting poem, I very much liked the end. :) You provided very nice imagery. The only thing I really had a problem with was second stanza " "It’s sad that people don’t respect paradise, the joy that nature brings!" || They look around, winter is a lovely princess who delightfully sings" The second part of it didn't make sense to me, but perhaps that's only me. :) Otherwise very nice poem, well written and a nice idea behind it.

I wish I was around on Booksie when St Vals came and went to be one of the first to comment on this story-filled piece.
