The snow rearranges itself
fallng off rooftops
born again
a revival of white
playstuff for red mittens

silverbirds cross the flawless sky
there is quiet here
the mood is sunlit grey

winter is tiring

february longs for a facelift

the sky is infinite

why are tears still shed
beneath such pageantry?

Beautiful mix of feelings and images, melting snow and tears....


In endless winter
even the snow has turned gray,
so long this wait....

winter weary
wet winds whistle
windows will warm
