If I Were Robert Frost
I'd pray that my soft words
would fall like snow,
blank white verse
upon the countryside
of your heart,
would fill the forest
of your dreams with light
and quietly lead you
through the trees
to our own
endless road
not taken.

Beautiful, Charles. Perfect image to go with your lovely words. :)
Ohhh...perfect with our fresh snow from last night. Love that "blank white verse upon the countryside of your heart."
Beautiful! I wish I knew someone to give it to!
What a gorgeous poem! I read it aloud to my daughter and she liked it too. :-)
Lovely.
Your poem took my breath away. I look forward to sharing it with my students.
This could be for so many loved ones, Charles. How beautiful to imagine writing the words like Frost, but connecting to those close.
Thanks for your kind, generous comments. You know I'm a big fan and follower of yours too!
Beautiful, Charles! Loved your *frosty* words!
