Snow White

Snow White                   by Sami S. Khalil

A frozen dream

Held in vivid cerise, Snow White’s asleep

Fashioned beauty in rosy slumber’s deep

Bedaubed face no awry eyes squinting

Tangling up my sanity, gently gripping.

 

Fires spit and flare up aside warm drifts

Winded runners shaken to cores’ gifts

Dazzling Christmas ornaments with embers

As moonlights dance around starry splendors.

 

Edges charred like ashen hearts burn slowly

And snow draping barren branches wholly

I lingered in her golden strands muffled

Wrapped in gloved silence hazily baffled.

 

Ensorcelled with, uttering magical spells

Awakened fleeting notions of wedding bells.

Virtuosity. tenderly, Pat
