Headstall's Reflections - 65. Chapter 65 Engaging
Engaging
A chill runs through me
One quick shudder
As I slide open the curtains
To a new day
Water beads on the glass
And frost appears
From a deep breath
The house is silent
I alone see the sparkles
As the wakening sun
Kisses the snow crystals
A sudden beauty
In the cold gloom
Of January
A fleeting blessing
From above
Before the gray returns
To coat the morning
I stand solitary
Like the cedars
Wearing their dull winter green
Bracing myself
To enter this frigid world
And make it mine
For one more day
