Winter Senses

Winter Senses

By Amy Meck

The crunching of boots, in the cold packed snow.

The moon shining down, making sparkles below.

The smell of chimney smoke, on a cold winter's night.

Cuddling up with your loved one in the fireplace light.

The laughter of children as they play in the snow.

Being warm in your home as the cold wind blows.

Snowbirds chirping, searching for food.

The winter does wonders for this girl's mood.

A Winter Poem

A Winter Poem

By Amy Meck

In the winter, the world feels new.

The snow like a sparkly blanket, that has never been used.

A magical blanket, that warms me on the inside.

But like a perfectly made bed, I can't help falling into it, leaving my imprint.

Afterward, I look around and miss the bed that was neatly made.

I search for another bed to fall into, because although it's pretty and perfect, beds are meant to be slept in.

And blankets fold for a reason.

A Christmas Poem for my Children

My Christmas Tree

By Amy Meck

My Christmas tree's beauty sparkles like a star

Like the one guiding wise men from Heaven afar.

The angel at the top glows radiantly looking down

As did the angels in Bethlehem town.

A simple ornament depicting the manger

That once was the bed of our blessed savior.

Our gifts lie beneath all wrapped up with love

Like the babe in the manger sent from above.

My tree makes me happy, peaceful, and light

As it shines like the star on that Heavenly night.
