Sleeping Beauty

Within this crystal chalice -
A kiss of liquid fire,
The banked and ebbing embers,
In remembered warm desire.

Borne down now by its burden,
A seed at the glistened tip,
The bud of Springtime’s flowers,
Entombed in an icy grip.

And slow its heart is beating,
Its breath is a gentle sigh,
For it dreams an awakening kiss to come,
With a warm soft air in the sky.

When the glass of its bed has been shattered,
To lie in shards at its feet,
While with gentle languid motions,
It will draw on its clothes, discreet.

Hi ((((AMY)))))

Hi ((((Louie))))))!

[JustAmy]

Hi Pippin

Great to see you!

Hope you are having a beautiful day.

[Pippin]

Except for the day-long rain, it’s been a great day :o)

[fewz]

It’s back! All right!

[JustAmy]

I think it has quit raining for awhile here. We need some rain but I’m tired of it for now. : )

[JustAmy]

I'm so happy to see you, Fewz. I've missed this place.

I'm going to try to check in every morning, but there may be days that I will need to be gone. I hope you get back often.

Have a Fabulous Friday!

I knew I could count on you!
Thank you for this wonderful winter poem.

Thank you again for always being here when I need you.

Amy, that is a Beautiful Pledge Graphic, and Amen to your Awesome Prayer for our Military!

I'm Thankful for this Flower
Our Loving Lord has Made,
But So Thankful Most of All
For the Blessed Son He Gave.

~The Lord Bless you~
(Ps.134:3)

[JustAmy]

Thank you for the compliments. And thank you for coming by today.
MamaBear is responsible for that beautiful Pledge Graphic.

I used the Prayer at the original Amy's Place ...
I'm not sure whether it is by MamaBear or St.Louie1.
I agree it is awesome.

Thanks again and have a wonderful weekend.

Yippee!! We're back! It's nice to see Amy's Place again. :-)

I am not a poet, so I will post a winter poem by Robert Frost.....

Dust of Snow

by Robert Frost (1923)

The way a crow
Shook down on me
The dust of snow
From a hemlock tree

Has given my heart
A change of mood
And saved some part
Of a day I had rued.

[Mama_Bear]

Hi, Kitty! That is a perfectly gorgeous flower our Lord has made, and you have done a beautiful job presenting it, too!

[JustAmy]

Yippee is right!!!

The poem by Robert Frost is perfect. Thank you!!

Your graphic is beautiful but it sure looks cold!

[Mama_Bear]

I am so, so tired of winter and being cold! I know, people who know that we live in California are probably wondering how on earth we could be complaing about the cold....but it DOES get cold here and it's damp and I am pretty much miserable all winter. Although, we don't have it as bad as most of the rest of the country, still, I can complain if I want to. LOL.

I am ready for spring the day after Christmas.

[Kitty Mittens]

Thank you Both, my FRiends; that Particular Flower is my Favorite of the Ones I've Taken Here where I Live.

The Poem by Robert Frost and the Pic are Excellent, Lori!

[JustAmy]

LOL

I’m looking for spring graphics for March. : )

After Marissa went to school this morning, I went back to bed to get warm. Naturally, I went to sleep and slept for an hour.
