Shadows

In this season…
deep with long shadows,
into sparrow grass, burnt from Summer,
death bent in frozen stares
at bitter hands craving some perspective
mislaid on this unlawful gloom,
my longing for rescue from Winter’s clutch
choking the hope from me
as I reach for the soft Earth
clawing out of the shadows
into the light of Spring
