Happy New Year

Postby Stella » Tue Dec 30, 2014 10:23 pm

Hush, there is a whisper
above the virgin snow
and all beneath ring tiny bells
from snowdrops soon to show.


A miracle is happening,
as the old year fades away.
Celestial lights are dawning
a new princess finds her way.


In satin ballerina shoes
she dances on tip-toe,
and in her wake snowflakes fall
in pirouettes and do-si-do.


Against a sky of opal
mountains reflect the dawn,
in the mystique of her whisper
they see the new year born.


Now the air is glistening
the year is fresh and new
as she swirls her skirts in the snow
I wish “All that is Good” for you.

A beautiful way of ushering in the New Year, Stella. Such lovely verse, so soft, whose flow is quite exquisite, Ma'am. May that beauty last the whole year through. A most Happy New Year's to you, my friend, and God bless you.

This is beautiful lead in to the New Year as there are so many wonderful Aha moments that it leaves me breathless. And, is it your winter season and so appropriate for your country. The closing lines are stunning as "swirling skirts in the snow" leaves me breathless Stella...
