and how it is seen

in zone 4b?

in wisps of mist
and mystery

is the rousing
of the drowsy woods

by last summer’s light
promising of her return

elucidates the pine tree
on how things came to be

snow recedes
with the mysteriousness
of spring’s birth
Dwelling
between the leaves
resides

for snow and still

all creatures and growing things pause
and give thanks for the coming day.
