Winter's Agonizing Beauty

Peaked out and everything was covered White—some things totally invisible—visioning Helpless immobility burdens, once always conquered:- Background sunlight caste dull-white shadows Across whiten, once pale green grass groundings; Where excited dogs have left frozen scented footprints. Wow, who would have imagined that warm yesterday Was, as if fall had challenged winter to show her cold face? Well, weary winter just burst out in all her agonizing beauty! And now, here we sit in an even more distancing atmosphere With its own chilling pandemic overtones of melting running water Wetting wishful dreams frozen into no-show-snow, slippery tomorrow!
