—-<§>—-
frost trims every pine
breath blooms in the cold
snow hushes the trail
crows carve distant arcs
icicles ring faint
light breaks through the firs
a fox prints the ridge
creek mist curls upward
wind waltz’s old growth
moss glows under ice
stumps play mountain tag
silence leans in close
shadows drift like wraiths
climbs thrust ancient spines
sun flares gold — then fades
deer pause in thin light
sky holds winter’s blues
night steps soft and sure
