Blizzard

White out
The magical face of winter draws breath from the wind
Exhaling drifts of immortal dust, in spirit of the season
Silence thrusts its regal blanket on the earth
Sift and flurry, bliss and fury falls
Not a creature bough or feature calls
Stand me in the blind of creations eye
White out
If I shall fall, then cover me
For only fire will melt my heart, and drench me in color
And to that end, do I delight in white

I love long walks in the winter snow, and good poetry, good write.
