Description

Cold (and blossoming)

Cold is the frost 

returning, 

across the blossoms 

of early April, 

falling in flakes 

of ice upon 

the frozen 

hardened ground, 

for the wind 

still whispers across 

the morning silence, 

beneath the tree tops, 

standing motionless, 

in ancient times 

profound.

As above their age 

and wisdom, 

the sullen skies 

cover new life, 

in cloaks 

of steel and grey, 

as dawn 

wraps the sun 

in invisible songs 

of springtime, 

as hope rises 

from the distant chime 

of bells and birdsong,  

the birth 

of life

for another day 

And as feathers 

of snow tumble 

from the heavens, 

tickling spring 

in her remembering, 

summer waits 

upon her dreaming, 

the birth,

of summer 

to come 

upon the month 

of May,

in twig and branch

a trembling.
