A Poem ... Not Like This

Not Like This

Strangers visit
Threshold door
Children shiver
Evermore

Modern world
Hollow place
Crowded life
Little space

Carnivores
Running wild
Chaos reigns
Devil child

Fatherhood
Eternal bliss
Tranquil lake
Not like this

A Poem ... Whispered Love

Whispered Love

Dusted white
Silent trees
Floating flakes
Gentle breeze

Ice daggers
On Parade
Dragon teeth
Heaven made

Short days
Longer nights
Bright stars
Northern lights

Snow blanket
Covered ground
Silent birdsong
Not a sound

Ghost breath
Whispered love
Reaches me
From above
