No problem

does it have to be about winter or could it be something taking place in winter too?

That too.

okay thanks!

No problem

It's Winter.....

The sun has arisen
Not a cloud in sight
The wind blows through the trees
The snow,
Fluffy white,
Whirls to the ground.
There is a sound....
A cry,
A shout
What is this about?
Meh.
It's just winter.

wow that was fast!

I had it writen for a week.

I like it :)
It's true. I'm starting to find peace in this white stuff.

Icy Departure

You are like snowflakes.
Gentile
Beautiful
Unique
Softly covering me,
light as kisses,
as I spread my arms out
in sweet surrender.
Happiness overcomes me
as I watch you
claim me as your own.
And in return,
I let you linger.
But then you started
to vanish.
I’m pleading
for you not to go
but you wouldn’t listen.
As you leave,
a deadly chill
starts to sink in.
I’m shivering,
begging for relief,
as ice begins to form.

Now here I am.
Stuck
Frozen
Trapped
Surrounded by the cold
that your absence has left me.

I like you poem doulbleid

sorry I haven't been on much lately, last min school work before the holidays...

And here's my poem

Winter

So very gorgeous 
This crystal white veil of snow
That covers the land

Beautiful yet cold
Quite a mysterious gift
From the skies above

So very bitter
Is this cold and frozen land
Covered with much ice

Though unforgiving 
It's beauty is visible
In every winter


 

Thanks, it is going to be hard to decide, but we still have time to decide.

Yes!

How long will it be open?

Until the 25th.
