Winter Waters

Winter waters flow
 untainted and clear,
a glimpse into clarity
 with nothing far away, all near.
Opened streams flood the plains
 chilled by winter cold and rain.

Step lively through the forest and the trees
 catch the scent of wood fires on each breeze,
leaf crunch and piles high and deep
 where snows lay on the grounds asleep,
a calling whispered on the open air
 coming home for Christmas, in memory, I'm there.

A touchingly beautiful tale of a Christmas homecoming, DM.
