April Showers brings May Flowers

Month to Month
If April showers bring May flowers, then June skies must bring July flies. If August heat brings September wheat, then October cold must bring November mold. If December flakes bring January lakes, then February chills must bring March daffodils.



Poets
Dickinson, Frost, Whitman, and Poe, These are some of the poets you may know. Byrons, Eliot, Browning, and Shakespeare too, All amazing writers through and through.

Winter Poems

     With the arrival of Winter, some of my blogger friends and I decided to put together a Winter Poetry link up for this month.  Check out some other creative Winter poems by clicking on the links below.



Winter
The warm turns into cold and the sun goes down by four. You must bundle up tight before stepping out the door.

The season brings an unwelcome chill one that goes up your spine. Winds that whip your scarf around and your hair that intertwines.

Fingers cringe with icy joints making it hard to say "Hello." Toes almost frozen in the knee deep cotton snow.

"Winter is a here!" we all hear them speak. But, I wish it were summer again with the sun upon my cheek.

~ C.M.




Snow Clouds 
Rain turns into snowflakes, they sprinkle all around. Whiteness covers the city  and blankets the frozen ground.

Snowflakes turn into snow, piled up so high. Streets dusted with salt from the plows that rumble by.

Snow turns into snowmen, big spheres of frozen fun. Decorated to the max until they melt from the glowing sun.

Snowmen turn into slush, a puddle of imagination. When it warms up again, He'll turn into evaporation.

~ C.M.
