Winter Morning

A bitter morning dawned today. Red grasses shiver under grey And lonely skies. Midwinter light. Misty clouds of swirling steam Waft above the rushing stream. Eagles perch upon the white Sycamore trees where they survey Their cold dominion and stay To gather trout, until they Unfold their wings, spiral away. December 27, 2017
