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.
