winter – Carl Setzer: Word Shaper

Sunlight’s Grace

under sunlight's grace 
I've left my coat in the car
though it's still winter

in this gentle rain
hints of spring are erupting 
this cold winter's day

in front of the rain
moving across the water 
enjoying the sunlight

Night’s sky with the moon, Jupiter and Venus

in this twilight sky
moon and planets aligning 
celestial

winter gale blowing 
fiercely upon the shoreline 
while the mountains gaze

underneath the sun
walking along the shoreline 
grace within winter

drifting through the mists
while the rain remains gentle
winter progresses

this cold winter air
signs of spring emerge slowly
this fragility

winter's motion 
sunlight crosses the sky
fading into dreams

this winter sunlight
continuation of life 
flows upon my face
