frozen rose garden guarded
snowdrift ice crawl
stick to wall God’s gift
white as snow nowhere to go
light dim gust wind air blow quick

the battled burden bear the brunt
every grunt trudge frozen blunt
twigs encased roots immersed
over girth of earth
saddened solid

winter flurry
footprints embedded steadily
smooth earth tone stones
entrap the heavy discovery verily

harness the energy-
beside enmity
a heartfelt empathy
the care you give to me

shining moon
in wind wake majesty
east end reality
spiritual miracle
moment mastery
mirror mystery
reflect sparkle
glisten
sunrise risen.
