Starless night no moon
Roiling clouds pack in darkness
Eyes shut against fear
Frozen fog, boughs bend
Crystal whites, green undertones
Icy silent morn
Cold clouds, snow flurries
Mountains hide above it all
Peaks warmed by sunshine
Darkness, distractions
Stumbling down twisted paths
Head raised, keeping faith
Love is not taken
Love is given from the heart
Give with soul and strength
Wispy whites and grays
Obscured view of vague foothills
Bright peak shines on high
Gliding across ice
Crowd roars, teams chirp, guard the puck
Slap shot, siren blows
Snow falling on snow
Drifting up past window sills
No signs of stopping
Happiness is cheap
It can be bought with a smile
Smile at me today
