PolarFest Poetry Walk 2025
If
By J.S. Jenson
If
I could
Express my thoughts
Succinctly like a symphony
Of words wandering across a
Wondrous realm of rhythm
Measured in time and
Married to meaning
Giving
Each word
The power to expose
Understanding like lapping
Waves washing icy shores
Clean of collected debris
That thwart understanding
Willing the warmth back
Of a well-lived life
Today.

Winter Winds
By J.S. Jenson
Winter Winds brewing
Bringing white snows to grey plains
Plucking the last warmth
Little Snowman
By J.S. Jenson
I am a little snowman, small and wide
Behind tall piles of snow I hide.
With a carrot nose and hat made of felt,
Come play with me before I melt!

Alone
By J.S. Jenson
The stillness grew
Cold and foreboding
Tension building and swaying
Like a small candle in a large room
Snuffing the flickering light into
Endlessly smothering
Darkness

Gentle Sets the Sun
By J.S. Jenson
Gentle sets the sun
Stillness greets the waking day
Light to dark and back again
A dance never ending

Skate Park
By J.S. Jenson
Heart stopping
Ears popping
Tongue flopping
Legs failing
Arms flaying
Skateboard sailing
