Winter Whiteout 2

(Triple Triolet)
 
Dark skies announce the snow’s advance
while forest roof displays pinched edge
and angel wings begin fluff dance.
Dark skies announce the snow’s advance
as hidden lake usurps her chance
and gums her banks to form a ledge.
Dark skies announce the snow’s advance
while forest roof displays pinched edge. 

The flakes descend to catch on cheeks
as angel aprons spill through clouds,
white hills arise from snow in peaks, 
and flakes descend to catch on cheeks.
We rest on mute as chipmunk seeks
concealment under cushioned shroud
while flakes descend to catch on cheeks
and angel aprons spill through clouds.

A winter whiteout slakes my thirst
for nature, un-excelled on earth,
and draws these lines in bosom versed.
A winter whiteout slakes my thirst,
expands a heart of unrehearsed
delight and wonder, wild rebirth.
A winter whiteout slakes my thirst
for nature, un-excelled on earth.
