December Stillness

December Stillness

just waiting for snow to fall
making white noises in silence
a melody a symphony
as i listen to my heart

drumming the joy of winter
yet its frozen
oh how i miss summer

naked brown treetops
swaying to reach
the ice blue sky

leaves are all gone
grassy grounds are not that green anymore
still waiting for snow

i sat in my house
writing along another hour
sunshine came
shimmering on my face

i only wish
there's snow for
once a day

cos i like how it tumbles
from the sky
how it lands on trees on rooftops
on street grounds

its so beautiful
kind of like heaven

indeed
i call this cozy moment
a december stillness

cos i hear early white noise
coming on my way

I am originally from Rochester, NY - this sounds like so many winter days, when the wonder of snow could not be denied....
