Five Poemlets on New Snow (an exercise from chapter 7)

1
Lights twinkle through the window
casting colored glitter
onto the newly fallen snow.

2
The trees nod their heads wearily
weighted with the cares
of newly fallen snow.

3
Low sky glows pink with farm lights.
The night world is soft with new snow.

4
The cold kisses of the sky
sizzle away on your cheeks
looking like tears.

5
The silence is immense and soft;
is the world sleeping
beneath this blanket of new snow?

  1. More trouble with trying to inset! I wanted the numbers centered above each little poem... it looks silly this way. Can you help, Dave? You are better with the computer than I am:)

  2. By the way, I hope you can see by the silly title that I put these on the same post, but they are not to be taken as a whole poem... each one is a brief description, and carries it's own idea... I just didn't think they merited being posted as seperate poems...
