The Rights of Spring

The harmony of the clouds 
In the sky 
Sing the silents of snow 
Half notes and denotes
In the air 
While winds whistles
And whispers its constant dare 
Eyes worship and stare 
At the greateness of the shroud 
Hides us from the moon and stars 
A frozen blanket streached so far 
It equals the size of the sea 
It speaks the tongues of 
Winter to me 
Cold froze and freezing 
Contemptious names 
For the days of decieving spring
