Solitude

In the stillness of this night, sounds
muted, shades of black and white,
snow drifting downward, surrounding the
landscape with new shapes and textures,
watching, as the flakes, gently touch
down, creating, mounds of pure white.

My footsteps muted, only the crunching
of the snow underneath, sounds, quiet,
branches festooned with white, gently
weaving in the wind, dancing
with whitecapped pleasure.

It's after midnight, yet the
sky overhead, remains whitened, with
the snow, crystalline patterns forming
in the pieces of light that
are scattered thru out the
lightened patches of snow, lights
reflected off of them. Standing
here, in the quiet, in the
absolute silence, of this winters snow,
Seeing the beauty before me, stark,
simplistic, and wanting to share
this with you, beauty, just for
beauty's sake.
Know that I am missing you.
