Gone. It’s gone. Lost in this Wonderland. He tramples in a sheet of soft hail. Chills crawl up his body like a spider up its web. His lips form blisters and cracks. His ears begin to burn at the touch. His body turns bluer than an untainted ocean.
He longs to find what he lost. The breeze hits him when he least expects it, bitter cold punches in all directions. The screeches of the wind grow louder. The mist of his breath in the air fades. All hopes of finding it are gone.
A shimmer of light grows in the distance. His frostbitten fingers reach towards it. The spirit of Jack Frost moons over him saying, “My son, I have what you are looking for.” His previously sullen face turns into a smirk. Mr. Frost embraces him and gives him all he was searching for. “Finally…” he says. Warmth.
A winter Poem of a lost man who is given something when he encounters the spirit of winter himself.
