Winter's Beauty
April 21, 2017
The silence is absolute, aside the
occasional songs of birds and the
distant rumble of a train
Nothing in sight except bare
wilderness and a landscape view
of the sleeping giant
Snow up to your knees,
Untouched
Trees covered in frozen sap
The bitter chill seeps through even
the thickest of layers
Every breath burns the lungs
Not a single remnant of the once
green summer remains
The sky is mixed of white and
purple, no warmth of the sun
penetrates its thick cloak
yet it is bright
I find beauty in this harsh winter,
solace in its silence.
