Madame Winter

Madame Winter

A Poem by Kelly Scheppers

Madame Winter

 

 

 

Dressed to the nines, is she
with limbs of trees

bowing before her,
as the breath of spring

prodigiously coos an orchestration

of well versed forget-me-nots
in her ear.

Thank you, Andra. It's wonderful having you here!
"coos an orchestration of forget-me-nots in her ear." Just what Madame Winter needs! Superb, Kelly :)

Sorry I'm so late, Lisa...thank you so much! xo
Magical! This certainly doesn't need turning into a tanka, but I love the challenge:

She's dressed to the nines,
tree limbs bowing before her,
as the breath of spring
coos an orchestration of
forget-me-nots in her ear.

dear Kelly, an orchestration of
winter tales ... mysteries unsolved,
awakened by the breath of spring,
as tree limbs bow. truly an epic
rendition. Pat

Oh how I have missed the Queen of mystery and seduction! You never fail to make me feel whimsical with your art. You are movement and flow!

She is fighting off springs lecherous advances here in Ireland and is holding out for Summer himself!

Pretty simply said...
My heart is not dead...
just resting until Spring!

I've been out of the saddle for a while...feels good to be back. Many thanks, Lydi!
We have had our fair share of winter this year, and I can hardly wait to see the first signs of spring,
and this poem is a wonderful prelude to my wishings.

Very nice,

Trace
