The Snowy Trail

Where does the snowy trail lead, to a trapper's cache by the frozen river or to a warm cabin glowing with embers, this is the path that the handsome wolf and its wiry neighbor the fox both follow, stealthily searching for food to fill their empty and cold stomachs. A writer's trail is snowy at times as the hunger trail of the wild, which leads over steep hills winding its way through the meadows of icy stillness, bypassing a frozen pond where some majestic moose carefully tread while their nostrils flare from winter's frostiness. The trail is exhaustive to climb and food is scarce but the untamed denizens reach their goal as the ravenous writer who does not give up and follows his or her dream.
