Paw prints in fresh snow
Cutting deep into the woods
I am not alone
Locks drive from behind
Front row holds, flankers’ eyes dart
Eight man traps the ball
Crouch bind set and drive
Scrum-half rolls ball to hooker
Loose-head prop holds ground
Ball out of the ruck
Catch and run through arm tackles
Diving for the try
Wind howls through windows
House groans as gusts test its strength
Sleepless night again
No tracks to follow
No clear trail trust your calling
Heavy winter snow
Frosted trees and grass
Nose stings eyes water mouth breathe
Winter morning run
Melancholy blue
Low energy kind of day
Good for reflecting
Morning clouds burn off
Boarding cog railway for peak
Eager to start trek
Sky refracts pink light
Clouds awash in purple glow
Front Range morning bliss
