White House

White house 
On a white cloud
Surrounded by white trees 
White hills and 
A grey sky

The echo of white silence 
Throughout the valley
Except for the heartbeats and
Scurryings of little critters
Digging for food and love

The smell of 
Burning wood
Along with the pine surrounds and
The smell of
The carcasses of decaying critters
Worn out by another white winter.
