Cowboy Winter

Move slow as snails pace toward eternity.
A curtain of shadows separates the pines incision.
In awe & showered on with tears as molten gravel,
Do my eyes disclose the small birth of one stone?

Each tendril dances in an unsure moment.
And a plane of ice, we trees
Take the full force of ghost & seed--
Your stone & acre.
