Winter’s Accomplishments

Numbness features embellishment as
Winter’s mind reclines in profuse allegiance
Engulfed fables of sphinxes
Sprinting from planet to planet

Storybook, placing its feet up
On the desk of some green essence
Sea grass of cosmic sediment
Jumping through hoops of snowflake lace
Where patters zigzag, grimace & beam
Whimsical, temporal increments

Pigmentations looking for new vision
On some antique parchment of Christmas
Long awaited wishes filled
Sometimes pondering disappointments

When the bows lay wrinkled
Pieces of paper scattered
Is visual fertility the embrace?
Overlapping things of occurrence?

The old man sits on a park bench
Feeding pigeons of courage
Confirming discernment
A natural world given by existence

Pathways for casual collections
Pool ripples smile
Seasoning smooth respite
Cattails singing their beguile

In expectation of spring’s return
Interlude with winter’s play
Spent
Trying
Inner self decides

What, upwelling wonder returns?
Leaping excursions into the air
Resolutions elation entwined
With some island horizon of time…
Trajectory across the page…awaits
Winter's Accomplishments

"Pathways for casual collections

~ These images and the sense of anticipation for spring's reture, were especially appealing to me.
