Footprints in the frost

Grass sparkleing like stars in the cold morning light,
It crunches softly as I walk,
Breath steaming clouds of white,
Wraped warm in wool and leather…

I stop and listen as the world slowly fades,
From shineing beauty gone too soon,
To browns.. greens.. and grays,
As a raven calls his mournful tune…

I watch my footprints etched in frost,
Fade like memories,
Of joy long lost,
In the misty days of winters past…

Chill wind soothes my forgotten heart,
A silken caress on fevered lips,
But I can stay no longer and turn to depart,
As morning clouds scatter like sinking ships.

Footprints

Like a humming note,
In the back of my mind,
It has been there,
As long as I can remember,
And when gone,
As I walk amongst the trees,
The silence is deafening…
I watch the sun sinking low,
Its golden rays illuminate,
Leafy green and gold,
Laying my hand apon the rough bark,
Cold wind gnashing at my cheeks,
And howling among the branches,
I let it fill my lungs,
Cooling my blood,
Sweeping away the endless struggle,
There is peace in this moment,
With the smell of dried grass,
And the taste of winter,
I turn and walk back along the path,
Thinking… one day… maybe….
I will share this..
With someone I love..
And there will be two sets of footprints,
In the dust,
Untill the wind blows,
And leaves us,
With only memory.
