Carl Setzer: Word Shaper

Memories of Snow

memories of snow
remaining in my mind 
signs of spring emerge

under sunlight's grace 
I've left my coat in the car
though it's still winter

quiet woods of winter 
today is filled with birdsong 
soon leaves will return

darkness pre-dawn
wispy tendrils of my dreams 
amidst memories

high clouds 
above mountain peaks 
highlighting the snow

in this gentle rain
hints of spring are erupting 
this cold winter's day

in front of the rain
moving across the water 
enjoying the sunlight

Night’s sky with the moon, Jupiter and Venus

in this twilight sky
moon and planets aligning 
celestial

underneath the clouds
cool rain gently descending 
slowly the light fades

winter gale blowing 
fiercely upon the shoreline 
while the mountains gaze
