When trees out in the open field Become covered From heavy snow Limbs start to droop and Break And some how speak to me When blue/gray shadows emerge When the weeping begins and ends So I Stop here now and stand still Frozen It’s dark Blackbirds sit and stare, It’s not time Though I climb over high walls Wanting, To pass this time again When unchartered roads are taken When white woven pearl doors open I am sunken Yet saved able to dream With no Regrets Of this sudden defeat When the ocean accepts my ashes
