Taking In the Warm
Set in winter white, ice, snow, and cold
sunrises with brilliant light
in pale gray-blue skies,
a cloudless stretch of shaded pales
shadow cast in black
waiting on the morning;
somber cries reach out
winged birds in flight
flutter fly across the sky;
here comes the day
frozen earth crunches wake
crackles of life protruding,
pointed daffodils piercings
tatoeing in between
the fallen scattered leaves;
life breathes anew
pushing back against winter cold
anxious to take in the warm.
