a cold passing

 a cold passing


snow can warm a broken heart 

for snow will thaw one day as will those

frozen fingers eased in the salt of tears 

bought in the wind’s regret 

and yet

               the winds 

           eventually ease

in the lee of a mountain pass

hard upon a shoulder’s comfort

a tale tells of the thaws of the past 

have we lost the means to see 

yesterday was cold

today is cold

tomorrow what will be …
