Fluffy piles of snowflakes blanket the earth
known as champagne fluff
snowshoes sink deep
wandering a familiar route
my endless yard called wilderness
I realize I am rarely driven to leave home
in one meadow
a world of life thrives
in a quiet winter way
In one word
In one meadow
In one lover
the entire universe can be experienced
this is my sense
Is there anywhere else to go
known as champagne fluff
snowshoes sink deep
wandering a familiar route
my endless yard called wilderness
I realize I am rarely driven to leave home
in one meadow
a world of life thrives
in a quiet winter way
In one word
In one meadow
In one lover
the entire universe can be experienced
this is my sense
Is there anywhere else to go

I love how much you have such utter appreciation for your beautiful world...and I can honestly say that I would find much need to venture away from where you are either...:)
ReplyDeleteLove and light...
beautiful
ReplyDeleteLovely poem. I like the phrase 'champagne fluff'. Another expression I love that describes the frosty coating is 'diamond dust'.
ReplyDeleteWhat a gorgeous photo! So uplifting and cheerful (maybe not for the tree), but it moves me.
ReplyDeleteHaPpy NeW YeaR!
It's just a wonderful feeling to walk outside your door and to know that there is no place else that you would rather be.
ReplyDeleteThis may be my favorite of your poems so far. I like the repetitions of the second stanza.
ReplyDeleteAbsolutely gorgeous!
ReplyDeleteLovely image and poem :)
ReplyDeleteMagical photo & lovely verse:)
ReplyDelete::sigh::
ReplyDeletesugar covered cherries is what that photo reminds me of. Delicious picture! :)
ReplyDeleteChampagne fluff...genius! And beautiful.
ReplyDeleteI hope you find a way to clean your oven in an environmental way, if you do and it works, please let me know! I am going to put aluminum foil along the bottom from now on though, that was too much work! So glad it's nice and clean and shiny now.
Yes, I understand this. I've felt this. From time to time I'll find myself in that place. I love the way you put it so simply and beautifully. The photo makes me happy looking at it. The freshness and lightness remind me that Spring is not far away, even though it's still winter. Thanks for this pleasant little lift this morning - you're a true "Spirithelper". xo Serena Pia
ReplyDeleteI wish I was there with no place to go. The deep snow is so quiet and peaceful...ahhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhh.
ReplyDeleteWhat a beautiful photo, and wonderful words to go with it. It is great when we become one with our surroundings.
ReplyDeleteA beautiful picture and some neat thoughts. Thanks.
ReplyDeleteWhat a glorious picture! I loved the poem, too. "Champagne fluff" caught my attention, but my favorite lines were those that started your last stanza: In one word/In one meadow/In one lover/the entire universe can be experienced Beautiful!
ReplyDeleteThis is just so beautiful! I love how snow makes things look so pristine. :)
ReplyDeleteVery nice colors :)
