Star-light Surgery

Quemis

Follow the movements
Of dwarf pine
Who lay down with the snow
Hibernate 'till warmth of spring
The sun will let you know
Not so different
Us from them
A fire all it takes
A trick with flame mid-winter
A fitful dreamer makes

Let the frostbite take its toll
Sadness moan her tune
Amputate your digits now
Within the light of moon.

    Cryptic but fascinating. Lovely and intelligent use of imagery.

    Thanks everyone!

    Can't say too much about it myself...

    Wrote it blind drunk last night.
