Hunting In January

January White of sky like the surface of a frozen lake mirroring the snow covered lands, shadowless, as orange weaves in and out of trees the color of dark cutting into the thin stillness of winter air. Each footprint covered, Again. Next day, light brims at the horizon and splashes yellow gold upon deep maroon, brown seeped into the barren trails of this vanilla earth.
