10/05/2017 Poem: Recalling Winter

I remember winter
I recall the silence and the brightness
The languid movements of half frozen trees
Who have already dropped their leaves,
Leaving only the skeleton branches to clack together.

I remember the only sounds
Being the crunching of snow
And the light whistle of the wind.
The heavy snow crushed sound to nothing,

Making winter sound like nothing.
