winter wear
ever-proud evergreens droop
heavy with burdens of snow on their shoulders
flat winter light illuminates
without revelation
muting meaningful contrasts
deep under branches where darkness usually reigns
a deceptive face of white blankets the mystery of dank rot beneath
as a smile conceals misery

Ah those nostalgic northern territories winter blues
And its not so much dank rot as composting to grow the blossoms of spring
but sadness is good. just helps to have somebody to be sad with.
