Where the Sun Doesn't Shine


The snow doesn't melt

on the edge of a field;

no one seems to notice 

where the sun rarely shines. 

 

secluded patches of life

struggling to survive 

snow constantly collecting 

but the sun does not shine. 

 

Eventually the snow is gone 

along with the life beneath 

before anyone even noticed 

because the sun did not shine.
