To a Beautiful Misry Winter Ensemble

Pine needles ape ice cycles glowing in the misty rain; the cold air periodically sneezes a chilling wind. What little snow that remains, clings to the hillsides—except where little flowing trails of water mark pathways to the waiting river. Passing the snow-covered cemetery, plastic flora gives colorful applause to this beautiful, misty winter ensemble missed by those peacefully resting there, and by those nature has chosen to hibernate. What a glorious moment in time: travelling free from harm…travelling free from causing harm.
