Cabin Fever

Posted on February 26, 2015 by Joanne Edith

White,
Snow on snow,
Week on week,
Inches on inches,
Crystal coverlet cast
like concrete,
Everywhere.

Yellow,
Sunny-side-ups
stare back at me,
Solitary splotches
On a grey,
February
morn.

Monotone,
’til glassy reflections
shatter monotony:
Towering treetops,
Resilient creatures,
Hidden havens,
Footprints.

Color,
Vibrant reflection,
Beyond the black and white,
Beyond the bleak; brilliance,
Beyond the drab; drama ,
Beyond the mundane;
Miracles.
