HE
CHILL OF WINTER NIGHT LINGERS IN THE AIR, AND I MOVE
QUICKLY THROUGH THE SNOW TO SEND WARM BLOOD TO MY NUMBLY
ACHING FINGERS AND TOES. A layer of fog
silently glides below the mountains, and any surface
brushed by its icy finger lays frosted, transformed
into a living scultpure of ice. Dawn's soft light
kindles the clouds above with a rosy pink, and I forget
the cold. January 2010, Grand Teton National Park,
Wyoming.
