God's Winter Beauty



Icy fingers and naked ancient oaks
Cold bones and stiff winter winds
Everything withered and quiet
A hibernating shade of rich brown


Winter hills of white with slivery gleam
Cloud shrouded hilltops
Sparkling dew covers the earth
Steam swirls upward where sun touches


Refreshing crispness on fine bright days
More often days of steady rain
Heaviness fills the air
The blue sky painted gray


Frost upon the window panes
Beyond, warm moist air flows over cold river
Thick gray fog drapes like a blanket
Creating a misty soup


All seems lost to the cold decay
Winter's sun, aspiring hope after struggle
The hugging warmth on numb limbs
Winter shall release its icy reign
