Richard Jordan Poet Light Verse

Winter's Storm

Winter’s storm




A muffled silence awakens me

The bright blueness of the room is the first clue

I gaze through frost -etched windows

To learn that the fury of the night storm

Has left delicately balanced ridges of light snow

In forked trees and across wires.

There’s a moment of uplifting

Even with the knowledge 

That day’s sun will undo

What night’s storm created.
