have you noticed the bird song changed the light at the end of the day have you seen the geese seeking mates and the willows sucking the light water greening their whips and have you survived the dark to find joy in hating the spring s mad mud or wilted have you taken the white hand to sleep with niggling snow so that you ll take the chance never to drift pure as your shining crystal to this green earth again where blood burns sucks trees down birds and all and winter returns year after year until there is only winter is there only winter for you now the blood is fire to make more of stars that take to task this cold we praise and fear is there only winter for you now nowchanged the title from january this poem didn t mean much to me when i wrote it but it goes on Written January 23rd, 2002 © on Apr 29 2002 12:40 PM PST, Frederic Jacob Gutknecht IV   10 • 0
