Winter Demon
December 6, 2012
Quiet winter snow
Cream and incandescent show
To touch is too cold
Each handful like burning gold
Thy heart is ablaze
Winter’s prodigious gaze
Seems so brash and gay
But
A monster in stolen a way
Swallow summer’s calming breeze
Dampen fall’s driest leaves
Take all you can before
Spring explodes with warmth galore
Quiet winter snow
Children’s eyes do not know
To touch is too cold
Painful and sore to hold
Thy heart has frozen
Sickly and yet ambrosian
Quiet winter snow
What a beautiful demon to have as a foe
