in the snow
it was January
you took me to school
we blasted Hozier and I begged you
to stop at the farm marketi bought 2 cups of hot cider
(1 for you, 1 for me)
and a bag of maple candy -
snow
my heart so beating
soft in my chest where there is
waiting a snowy storm
-
she who is quiet amidst the noise
here in the forest, there is a-waiting
a little bird, quiet and sweet
she does not quite understand
how they could have born herthese foreign beasts
-
come now away
once in the darkness
where i was thinking
i saw a light
oh deep in my soul
i did not question
where it had came from
i simply sat
in its embrace -
winter and her freezing grasp
winter wages her war outside
angrily beating her ice-hands on my doors
thrashing branches she sends through the air,
a flurry of soft snow not far behind
she screams her wind-scream, rage filling the storm. -
tis the cycle of things
tis the cycle of things,
this dying,
this hungertis the cycle of things,
the cold and the wintertis the cycle of things,
this living,
this dying

The Blizzard
I hardly knew her at all, wasn’t expected to. She was just a kid at the High like anyone else, who had no car. She was sitting stubbornly on a bench, determined to get a ride.

“A Peachick’s Distress”
Bright and lively the feathers surround
Everyone’s keeping their head up so high
They expect the young fledgling
To join them the glory and pride

First Snow
She fell to Earth, coating the land with a soft hush
For one short month, in between, she embraced her long-lost lover, Autumn, until their time together came to an end and he departed from her icy arms.

First Snow
The first snow I saw this year was in a cemetery.
An old, abandoned cemetery.
The small, barely perceptible flakes fell,
Bitter as any of the old graves,

I swore you thought I was beautiful.
You drove me home that day, January's cold bitter sky above us. You had driven me home before, but that day felt different than all the other days.
