WONDERS OF THE WINTER FOREST 1. Sunny Squirrel A squirrel was jumping From branch to branch. So easily! So lightly! Not one snowflake fell... Its gray winter fur Was a thoughtful letter From the forest to us... Its downy tail flitted Among snowy branches. But here it stopped And looked around. A little nut appeared In the squirrel's small paws. A short crackle. Something sparkled like a far star. The squirrel looked around again. All its fur became bright silver. The squirrel sparkled, Turned into a silver beam And rushed away Towards the winter sun... A minute passed. And you could see a jolly sun-beam Playing on a snowy branch. It ran down and turned Into the squirrel again... People called it a sunny squirrel. There are a lot of them in our forest. 2. Snow bird The snow-clad forest is calm Like a spellbound palace... You go through it Like through empty halls... You go and feel... Somebody's eyes spy on you Closely... You turn right and notice Two little intent bead-eyes Stare at you. They are so funny! But suddenly you see It's a huge white bird! It spreads its big snow wings And all around fills With snowflakes. The real blizzard starts! You can't see anything Except this snow before you... When the blizzard becomes quiet You find yourself On the edge of the forest. A neat path winds On the snow-covered field Towards your home. The snow bird dislikes it When somebody guesses its riddle... (C) 2002-2008 Alex Kalinkin THE LOST STAR All the sky was flooded with dancing stars When she opened her big emerald eyes... Some light had lost its way here, Among the shadows of her room... Some light lived among the shadows... She couldn't sleep... She was a little princess of the big world... Where the star had lost its way... Where is this star? The night shadows parted by their hands And only the stars were dancing, Forgetting about their loss... She came to the window cautiously, The white roses greeted her by nods... What are you looking for, Little princess? Somewhere here is the missing star, She answered smiling, I felt its light somewhere here Did you see it? Yes, you'll find it tomorrow morning, Be sure, you'll find it, When the night shadows melt, The star will blossom, You will see... Early morning, When the first sun-beams start their play The little princess woke up... And felt something light in the air, Something festive... She laughed, she remembered Today is Christmas day! The star was here, in her heart! (C) 2001 Alex Kalinkin |
