As winter comes and goes

soft, yet cold as it piles up

on the top of the wooden fence

behind the farm house

white as crystal, no imperfections

it sparkles in light, hard for the eyes

but still, i continue to stare

for a moment, I hear a whistle

calling my name from behind the large oaks

I run for you, through the layers of untouched snow

leaving my scarf loosely wrapped around the fence

cautiously I approach you

I ask why you are here

why you have come

but to that you cannot respond

you stand still, arms to your chest

I can see myself in your eyes, deep blue

the light glistening from below

and then you leave

as abruptly as you had come

without further questions

I grab my scarf

and venture into the farm house.
