    Black Ice

    In the quiet of winter’s embrace,Under the cloak of night’s deep grace,Lies a phantom, sleek and sly,A treacherous layer called Black Ice.It mirrors the moon in deceptive guise,A perilous beauty, cold and wise.Travelers, heed the silent cry,For beneath your feet, the dangers lie.With a whisper, it calls to those unaware,A dance with fate, through the…

    The Day is Cold and Dark and Dreary

    Poems About Cold Hearts

    Cold Heart In realms where warmth should dwell and foster life,A heart resides, encased in frost and strife.No season’s chill, no winter’s icy hand,Just barren lands where emotions stand,Frozen in time, untouched by sun’s embrace,A cold heart beats in a secluded space.Silent WhispersWithin its walls, silent whispers echo,Tales of love that never got to bellow.Shadows…

    Cold Winter Night

    Beneath the cloak of a cold winter night,Whispers of frost on the breeze take flight.Stars twinkle above in a silver array,Painting the dark with a cold, gentle sway.The moon, a guardian, full and bright,Casts upon snow a soft, ethereal light.Trees stand in silence, their branches bare,Holding the weight of the cold they wear.Breaths form clouds,…

    Cold Plums

    In the stillness of the morning’s first light,Lay plums in a bowl, cold and bright.Their skins, a dance of purple and blue,Holding the chill of the dawn’s fresh dew.Touched by the warmth of a rising sun,Their icy sheen glistens, one by one.A contrast so stark, yet beautifully blends,In this quiet moment, where night softly ends.Beneath…

    Cold Morning

    In the hush of dawn’s embrace,Where frost kisses leaf and stone,Silence wraps its cold lace,In the realm where light has flown.Beneath the pale sun’s weak gaze,Shadows stretch with icy fingers,Breaths swirl in a misty maze,In the heart, a quiet lingers.The world, wrapped in a silver sheen,A tapestry woven from winter’s sigh,Whispers of what lies unseen,Beneath…

    Cold Hearted Poems

    Frostbound Solitude In the realm where frost does cling,To the chambers deep and stark,Lies a heart that ceased to sing,Embraced by shadows, cold and dark.Its beats, a silent, mournful dirge,In echoes lost, through halls of ice,Where whispers of the past emerge,And warmth is but a vanished spice.No ember glows within this core,A fortress built of…
