Thorny Poetry - 26. Brighter
it’s brighter now
out there
the sun melts the frost from
bare branches
snow and ice
thaws into slush on the road
dark green spruces set against
the sky, a pale winter blue
and if you listen you can hear
sparrows and wagtails
no wind to drown out their song
it’s brighter now
in here
the sun melts the pain from
cold fingers
it’s brighter now than it’s been
all winter
