A white whirlwind falls
Slanting across trees and road
As snow descends.
Quiet the descent--
A million snow flakes falling--
Clouds of solitude.
Fence posts standing still
Let the falling snow cap them--
Passive acceptance.
Forsythia blooms,
This time with snow white blossoms--
Its winter garment.
Twice sold empty house
Made more empty by the snow,
Stands desolately.
Mirror in the stream
Shines through the falling snow flakes,
Reflecting the sky.
What little people
Will cross these snowy bridges
Into the forest?
Forest sings in the snow
Its high pitched tuneless singing
Songs for the season.
