reflections

From a late walk in a snowy valley: silence among friends.

 

moon-made stars sprinkle midnight snow

through clouds of shadowy breath

thoughts guide where we go along

muffled crunch under foot.

 

pocketed hands, try one eye blind

see half the stars lost on lacking lines of light

bound by blind reflections in silent moments

age-old notes made on blank pages of star-specked minds.
