Untitled: Another WInter Poem


Untitled



Stinging chill of cold hard nests
the frozen hand caressed us all
the calming death of silence
pressed upon the rough jagged land
a sight for sore eyes the
tack of spring chroma

The dried heavy lungs of the steel toned breath
crunched burdened by
piles and miles of dried
chilled ice
collapsing under the weight of long dragging days
from pricking grey to stone black
the day frosty, breath in sight
long bitter brutal nights

The lack of warmth
no time to play
evergreens and blossoms carefully hidden away
searching with a desperate gaze
among the still surface
for an escape
trapped, dead
sentenced to life below the concrete
now wild whizzing wind deadly beautiful blitz
snow
sealed with a beautiful kiss

Listening and mourning the long love lost
memories of sweet sweaty days
but something’s there
underneath the chill
something has seized, clung to life
and has survived this
artic, bleak
winter fright
