Melting Away

rainbow reflections

   fall through the green canopy

       the white forest floor

               lit by prisms from above

   spring sun shines on winter's snow

At this lattitude, scenery as you have described it here does not exist in August. Just reading this made me feel cooler from the summer's heat.
