Rebirth

Stark contrasts on a background of lucent wonder
Stillness prevails but all is not what it seems
Snowy branches cry tears of dripping ice
Into crystal clear waters of streams

Harsh winds whip up suddenly unannounced
And threatening clouds begin to form and swirl
The landscape stirs as if awakening from a dream
Once silent now revealed the world unfurls

Thanks for sharing this... Welcome to Poetry Soup. Meanwhile, I welcome you with God's love, expressed in John 3:16 of the Bible, "For God so loved the world, that he gave his only begotten Son, that whosoever believeth in him should not perish, but have everlasting life." God bless you.
