Once Upon A Winter's Night

A Poem by Sunflower/Sara Kendrick

"

Once upon a cold winter's night

There reigned a snow-capped mountain

The rock hearth glowed with embers bright

And love flowed like a seeping fountain

In memories it flows again unslain

 

Snowy winters come and go and go

Snow 'pon the mountain thins

Fires in the rocky hearth sometimes glows

Only on cold winter nights~ love spins

And pain's memory chamber ends

 

Snowy mountains don't remain

Avalanches, earthquakes take their due

For that mountain love uncontained

Let that hearth fire now renew

Amazing love flourish and accrue
