Dreamt of love last night
Red-hued scenes of seduction
Love without restraint
Blacked out hotel room
Wake confused with mild panic
Slopes outside await
Ice-covered sidewalks
Melted snow frozen like glass
Skate to work today
Sideways driving snow
Stare out the window and sigh
When will spring arrive?
I discern failure
Yes I fail and gain from it
Failure drives knowledge
Shimmering turquoise
Dive through warm surface waters
Treasures lie below
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
