Christmas light strands
hang down dead n'dim
clattering
in the north wind
power flickers
with each cold gust
low rumble
out beyond
the curve
blue lights flash
whirl into view
the county plow
pushing back
deep snow
and darkness
the Tired Monk
This is visually really stunning, Ollie. I can see it all so clearly.
ReplyDeleteBrother Ollie,
ReplyDeleteI'm quite familiar with that worrying sighting of flashing blue lights in the distance, especially when driving along a countryside road. Always alarming about what might be around the next dark corner.
Hopefully the arrival of spring time, might remove that sense of constant darkness.
