Since I have no talent for poetry and the title of this entry doesn't specify whether the poem is one I wrote or one I like, I'm going to assume it's the latter.
My favorite winter-themed poem is probably Stopping by Woods on a Snowy Evening by Robert Frost.
Whose woods these are I think I know.
His house is in the village though;
He will not see me stopping here
To watch his woods fill up with snow.
My little horse must think it queer
To stop without a farmhouse near
Between the woods and frozen lake
The darkest evening of the year.
He gives his harness bells a shake
To ask if there is some mistake.
The only other sound's the sweep
Of easy wind and downy flake.
The woods are lovely, dark and deep.
But I have promises to keep,
And miles to go before I sleep,
And miles to go before I sleep.
I particularly like the last stanza of the poem.
I like the imagery that the poem creates. It has a melancholy vibe to it, in a good way though.
