Dream On Ice

Whistling through forests grey and darkening
Warning night hunters back to hiding
Wind on violin branches ice tears crying
Whipping tender limbs and stiff trunks knocking
Weak pines with roots from ground unearthing 
Whirlwind dance broken life bouncing
With snow drifts peaks and angles rounding
Walking in through cracks with ice teeth biting
While shoeless dreams on endless 
White sands with azure blue skies are running
