Landscape
Nature, famously given to excess
chose today to flaunt her superb artistry
and had you ventured into her woods
a sight to capture breath would have
been privileged you where a constant
exquisite skein of crystalline stars
crowded the atmosphere with the
brightness of light though under a
dusky sky heaped with clouds intent
on releasing their light burden of snow
in the creation of a winter landscape
whose beauty cannot be rivalled
where gentle mounds of snow hump
the forest floor and stumps of trees
heaped high with snow resemble a
child's imaginative construction of a
snowman with all the attributes of a
friendly ghost. Snow dappling the air
gracefully marbling branches and tree
trunks like a mother tenderly arranging
a coverlet over her sleeping child.
