7.

Thick blanket of snow
fertile ground hidden beneath
You and I, apart

8.

Cold winter sinks its
icy fangs into bare hands
My Muse, so distant

9.

Frozen moonless sky
blankets the night with stillness
We find ourselves lost

10.

Snow reflects daylight
candle lights night reflection
Season of mirrors

11.

Rest is not absence
sleep is not the same as death
Lesson of winter

12.

Early hint of spring
first trickle of melting snow
Promise of bird songs

13.

Clouds ready to burst
swaying hazel tree catkins
opalescent rain

14.

The darkening sky
little frogs sing evening songs
Forest disappears
