1133

Image taken by me, Winter 2010, Horton Township, Ontario

-1133-

The Snow that never drifts - 

The transient, fragrant snow

That comes a single time of Year

Is softly driving now - 

So thorough in the Tree

At night beneath the star

That it was February's Foot

Experience would swear - 

Like Winter as a Face

We stern and former knew

Repaired of all but Loneliness

By Nature's Alibi - 

Were every storm so spice

The Value could not be - 

We buy with contrast - Pang is good

As near as memory -
