Winter Frost
Winter frost
Dripping Ice from aging Past
Memory eroding as time passes
Thoughts dancing a swallow dance
In cloggy, misty fog
a passing cloud, a light drizzle
Racing to the end of days
as fierce sunset breeze
fanning embers grey
Regret's arrow piercing deep
bearing grief, birth in previous Moons
Sky painted red, Moon sighing loud
Shadow vanishing like a fabricated story
Told on a boat riding to its wreck
When it comes, so it will be
Like phoenix rising from her ashes
For in her despair comes laughter
Her distraught , her win
When it's not over, it's not lost
