winter mood

another autumn sold for wintry colours
however daring rusty melted gold
i have a fondness for forsaken gallows
of solitary trees in livid snowy mold

rejoice, the mud you'll gain a shiny frosting
of ice to look much more mundane
unnecessary chic, you'd say, a touch too glossy
whatever, mistress Fall, please stick to your domain

i shield my eyes with early tender darkness
it welcomes us nocturnal species crew
a starship on my way in every lonely sparkling
in every drop of mystic alien brew

a toast to jingling air and risky frozen strangers
too numb and deaf, perhaps, but no more blind
my brotherhood of white, and lucky sleepless wagers
we welcome thee as mother and as bride.
