Death in the coldest north...

Deep and slow the feeling flows, Im half asleep with drifting snows, The pearly luminescent night, Swooning softly in and out of sight,
As far from love as I will ever be, Its pallid bleakness so profound it comforts me, My heavy lids sink slowly into somnolent rest The starkest night wears flawless jewels upon her vest,
Forgotten lands of lonely crystalline tundra, Imbue the softest sleep upon my soul, its full of dying thunder, My dreams here fill with zigzagged flakes of patchy snow, Unearthly solace descends from ghostly heights Id never cared to know,
Sleeps embrace is frosty here, An ashen face is filled with frozen tears, No beads of sweat cling to its brow From daily deeds unceasing , and a sleepy soul knows rest now.

This DID flow beautifully. The imagery was fantastic. It was so calm and sad. "From daily dees unceasing, and a sleepy soul knows no rest" reminds me of the things I have been writing lately. We must endure, eh? Thanks for being inspired....

Wow. The title is reminiscent of Robert W. Service and very intriguing ...
Love the imagery here, zenith. It sets the mind in all sorts of
imaginings. The emotion bleeding from your words is filled with
a melancholy that is tremendously gripping. Excellent word usage,
my friend. I especially loved the last stanza. Very engrossing ...

Mmmmm loved the feel and flow of this. The imagery which you conjured up in my mind's eye was beautiful....maybe I'm just so thirsty for cooler weather. So many lines I love....
"The starkest night wears flawless jewels upon her vest,"
The piece had a bit of sadness to it, but the wording was just awesomely beautiful. Thank you for sharing.
Peace,
Laura |

what a moving title
what a flowing piece
it captured all what was felt and being felt
your words flow and give images to the reader who can sit and wonder
ponder
and really think more and more
give too many felt thoughts
i can relate
loved the post
