sun shines brightly
on the glistening snow
casting the illusion
the day will be warm

nature lies

and so we close the book...
a new chapter begins...
common comments on change
making me ask the question

who is writing these things
how many have they written
what really is the change
should i bother to pay attention

too many times it seems
only the names are changed
the plot remains the same
time to change the authors

i hear the sound of echoes
from thoughts i left behind
thoughts which are forgotten
lingering only through echoes

faint the sounds remain
haunts within the mind
caresses for the inner ear
reminders of something unknown

the question that rises is
should i wonder about them
or simply let them fade
as forgotten for a reason

tickles across the brain
make ignoring impossible
teases at my awareness
demands for attention

too much time spent with recall
in the struggle for their return
but only the echoes reply
it is truly difficult getting old

moonlight becomes real

the world dances in silver

cold creates the music

footsteps make snow sing

the chill dances within

making winter alive

welcome the cold as friend

feeling the old fall away

cold opens the door

letting the new come to life

renewal of spring comes 

through the bite of the cold

there in lies the reason

humans live in the north

extremes extend reality

extending the borders of life

in the hardness of life

conditions make it more 

sensations magnify life

seasons become amplified

through extremes we define

the limits to living life

extending the value of all

no matter where it exists
