Winter notes

I cried
As I watched the
Snow begin to fall again
Knowing its mean
Endeavour of imprisonment
And its rapid descent
To edge over my day,
Its deep embrace
That so facetiously smiled
In its glory,
Its weary music
Dancing along
Off-key
Moving the world to
Impatience, frustration
And the ditch.
