within
within the white, folds of green await
adventures of spring lie buried as we toil
through the icy ridges of everything
abounding there is white
and cool blue skies
but beneath the cement which has been paved by a road of ice
teaming life is churning
silently the roots are yearning
down they push even now
plodding forth and reaching out
the sun
it waits
to be close to us
a forlorn lover who’s gift we are lamenting the absence of
a diva in the sky
not fickle but sly
waiting until the moment we cannot bear her absence any longer
and then!
cheek to cheek we are again
so happily we relish and renew
so happily we play and love
the heart is merry with abundance
within this darkness there lies a light
waiting until the time is right
within this seed there lies a universe
a universe hidden from us
softly we hide in down blankets
by fireplaces lit
toes curled
hands intertwined
awaiting abatement of winter with bated breath and a silent prayer
when the grass is green on the hill I will meet you there!
