A Change of Seasons

The air
         becomes 
frigid
and as dawn 
breaks
        over 
           
the 
            city
the thousand and one 
                        creeds
vanish into 
     silence
      flakes of snow
fall lightly 
           on the trees
on the 
      crowds
as they head home
Perhaps you'll find 
              what you're 
               looking for
in this 
       festive 
season
        the whirling 






snowflakes 
            cover the asphalt 
homeland
             in 
               white
"all the world's a 
stage" as the bard said
     but the actors
 slow down
          and hibernate
come winter
