Winter Dream

I dream of small mottled rabbits 
Sleeping in silver caves under snowy river banks; 
I step stone by slippery stone 
Across the clear ice-flecked water, 
Shall I waken? 
Dreaming of marmoset and beaver, 
Dreaming Native dreams 
Of small, bright-eyes, 
Scurrying or cruel but always Bright. . .
