Winter Walk

pgreed

My feet crunch on white-sculpted tufts of grass

By a tree-rooted path leading back home

The groud frozen, once muddy morass

Changed by time's metronome;

 

This time of year I hate 

This gateway to the Spring

When skies of slate

The leaden doom-clouds bring;

 

But if it didn't exist

Spring would not be the same

When nature, ever the artist

Paints lances of cold flame;

 

How can Spring's coat be worn

Eyes once shut, opened wide

How can something be re-born

If it never died?
