A Mystery

Snow drifts in front of the cars high beams 
finding their death in the sharp white 
far away into the night 
The Engine silently hums through the frosted night 
leaving no tracks in the freshly fallen snow 
autos black beetle Shell 
dark against the indigo sky 
reflecting no stars no moon no light 
just to pinpoints of high beams 
Slipping through the night 
silent 
stealthy it glides 
Snow drifts in its wake 
moving forward into tomorrow 
Not an ice crystal brakes 
waiting for the world to awake 
to a mystery
