A hoarfrost weave of glistening alabaster crystals,
forms a brittle web of tenuous tentacles
that creep across the frozen ground
and up the trunks of the naked trees;
encapsulating their barren branches in an icy sheath,
attesting to Nature's immutable beauty.
Dawn, pencils in light and shadow;
creating a surreal sketch bereft of color,
drawn from the bristles of Autumn's phantasmagorical brush.
In the interlude between the break of Dawn and sunrise,
a formidable six-point buck skittishly prances into view;
demurely projecting the illusion of a hallmark postcard.
But the sound of crunching leaves underfoot,
breaks the spell; shattering the unbroken silence;
and as time unpauses the moment, Nature carries on.
