a sun blue morning after snow

 a sun blue morning after snow


a sun blue morning after snow

hushed in this painting the oils 

are as aged as time itself as

aged as every gaze that alights

bird-like upon life’s fence held

forever is stilled here now before

a held breath mists the morning 

to move forward and it’s lost


touch it fingerly

finger it touchingly

ribble the smooth

smell the oils 

long-dried

fresh as a new fall of snow
