Frozen Still
Standing in a moment of time
Such as the icicles hitting in a consistent chime
Ice filling the cracks of bark on the tree's girth
Leaves were frozen as hidden blankets against the earth
The sky is as grey as the fur of a wolf, or the skin of a seal
Like a great stone softened under the snipping current of the sky set to reveal
The unnaturally quiet dawn, morning, the air I observed
As only the brush of the branches against the snow could be heard
Not even the dove or the rooster's crow was reliant
Through the morning silence
Shadows of grew and colors of black were the only differentiation
Against the great vastness of the white snow and grey sky affixation,
Of color from above and below
Enable Ginger
Reset against the whiteness of the snow.
