Temporary Frost



Defrosting from the winter's breath

A gloss upon on piney meadow
Foliage confused for growth 
A leaf alive, a petal dead
Defrosting from the winter's bed 

Flying through spring winds
Wings collecting pollen things
Mate has fallen from the nest
Winter frost has done her best 

Branches from the weeping willow 
Blossom a dozen yellow flowers
And pink cascades the forest floor 
Where winter mist appears no more 

But the rain storms while the lightening bellows 
Echoing in alleyways 

And the sun of summer shines in spring but the forecast calls for winter snow
