Winter Wonderland



There is a cold and fiery beauty in winter, where the stiff black bareness of trees is iced in puffy piles of pure white snow--

where springtime promises of bursting blossoms hibernate, hide as mere memories, beneath frozen foam--


where the slow drops from crystal columns of ice whisper "soon," "someday," "shhhh."
