A Darkened Spectre
By Meher Gandhi
In a darkened spectre, moonlight sings-
A beautiful song unknown,
High above the obvious beings,
To the world oblivion to both laughs and groans.
The sparkly night,
The stars that flow,
Make up for heavenly light,
To shine and glow.
The snowy sparks of black and white,
The heated cold of the chilly night,
The fallen leaves that rise and fly,
Tell me to never leave and always try.
The windy spirals of glittering ice,
The trees never windblown,
Create a space like paradise,
In the sandy desert unknown.
The frozen roses,
The dew on the leaves,
Shine bright through the dark,
With the light the night weaves.
How could I ever leave this soothing scene?
I wish to forever listen to this breeze.
I wish to breathe in the sweet mist,
Not to leave any rose unkissed.
Basically, I had to do a winter special! Winter is my favourite season. It’s all so beautiful and aesthetic in winter! I love the vibes I get in December (also because it’s my birthday month).

‘The windy spirals of glittering ice,

In the sandy desert unknown.’
Honestly the best lines I’ve read today.
This is amazing. The whole vibe is that of the winter season. It’s beautiful.
I also love the winter season, not because of my birthday xD but because of Christmas! 🎅
Happy birthday month to you! And congratulations on 400 followers! ♥

Totally got the wintery vibes, I love it. Especially since I’m from much far further north than I am right now and I’m missing those “snowy sparks of black and white” quite a bit right now. Lovely poem.

Nice work Meher. Underneath the winter motif this piece is also about hope and resistance for me. Lines like “never leave and always try” and “frozen roses” touch on resilience and no matter what, which is always beautiful.

Yes, this poem is much more than the beauty of winter…it does have a deeper meaning. It is also about being hopeful and grateful. I am so glad to know that you could get the deeper meaning!
This is probably the reason why I love poetry; every person is able to perceive it in different ways!
