For a Winter Afternoon

There's only five days until Christmas; the perfect time for some wintry poetry from President of the Pembroke Poetry Society, Michael Brown

For a Winter afternoon

Dedicated to Helena Thurm

There is a pure sky
Winter afternoon
that hangs, like the distant sound
of sudden church bells.

Like finding your gift message
pencilled on my receipt.
That warm feeling,like your footprints
melting into snow.
