Think on the divine
And the tick tock
Of the ever-present clock.
I hear the blackbird
Who has heard
Not of clock,
And my fleeting word.

She wears stiletto heels
And swims with seals.
And some say the squire’s a liar!

All alone we go
Waiting for the snow
To softly fall
And cover all.

Into that quiet land
And greet the snow.
