A small leaf
glides so elegantly
across the frozen pond
In winter winds-
The geese
high up
surf the sky so smooth-
Squirrels, gray and black
scamper
for natures snacks-
The pond so frozen
beckons families
to carve the ice
Inner edge - Outer edge.
No skaters visit today
The pond so frozen
Awaits in winters wonder.
