*Winter's icy fingers
freeze my world.
The door to spring
now in a time lock
like a bank vault
Sitting alone
by my window
warm breath melting
a portal to the street
in the crystalline
patterns of ice .
Outside cars are like extinct
dinosaurs abandoned
in the street.
Covered in pure white.
How elegantly the snow
delivers its silent discipline
Now the wind
wails like a grieving lover
causing the ice covered berries
to gently ******
like glass wind chimes
In the mist of falling snow
Ghostly skeletons of the trees,
leafless grey and frozen
patiently await the springtime.
Far into a distant time to come
apple blossoms glow in radiance
and a church bell chimes.*
