Reflective prisms

Sparkling in sunlight’s glow

Blocking escape

Like bars on a cell

img_3196What lies beyond the forest mist

Comes closer, if you whisper

Your breath, exhale, the frosty dew

As the air becomes much crisper

The path behind you disappears

No footsteps can you follow

Walking through the fog, just you

Staggering, as you wallow

In the stillness that surrounds

Stop now, inhale, and feel it

Winter’s frozen drops abound

In the fog that does conceal it

The sky looked dismal, I expected it to rain

Of course, no umbrella, it’s always the same

But to my surprise, the rain never showed

Instead, white flakes fell, as beautiful snow

I’m feeling quite joyous, Yes! It’s that time of year

So delighted, when the holiday season brings cheer

Decorations that shine on each tree, lighted brightly

Ah, the sky glistens too, with each star, lighted nightly

I wake to frosted windows, shimmering in the sun

I used to love the arctic air, as a child, I’d play & run

Winter’s breath is upon me, how I shiver in the cold

Seems I can no longer handle it, I must be getting old
