stirring in slumber
in the belly of winter
awaiting rebirth

stirring in slumber
in the belly of winter
awaiting rebirth

a flock of robins
spreading cheer and dispelling
the gloom of winter
sunrise and sunset
sometimes the only colors
on a winter day
day after day of greyness
where oh where is the North Star
winter visitors
foraging through underbrush
singing as they go

blue skies and sunshine
temperatures that make winter
almost bearable
