Encircling Light

Winter wind returns
Once again, the cold air churns
Inside the woodstove fire burns

Winter can be long
Holding onto a bird’s song,
Helps stay uplifting and strong

Ice lays where tears wept
From icicles, cold has kept
Hanging through the night I slept

Morning is now bright
Sun enhancing all the white
Encircling me with light
