With a window already framed,
a Winter artist
set to working a crystallized
painting to be embossed
upon a frigid plate of glass.
Splattered about,
shiny silver specs
of snow-fairy dust,
a multitude of effervescent hues,
dance swirling upon
newly white covered ground;
a fresh gesso-canvas
prepared to impress and inspire.
An illustrated living story of
snow waves,
rigid ripples,
and frozen faded-footsteps offer
memories of recent events;
became the painter's background.
A moment's flash
of a bright contrast,
a flush of scarlet-red,
lands and leaves the ledge;
a birdbath's ice rink too slippery,
teases the cardinal's
search for a quick drink.
Winter's artistic muse,
with its long steel fingers
of dark blue shadows, creates
an icy significance,
painting a frosty picturesque scene
with magic crystals formed;
lingering on the frigid window pane.
