Winter's End -

Winter's end comes with a breeze
Dewy and warm with a coming thaw
Blowing away the frost and cold
And the old icicles.

Winter's end comes with the twinkle
As dawn yawns away the everlasting darkness
And the frozen lakes shake away their icy layers.

A snow leopard creeps along the craggy mountains
A white owl flies silently back to her den
But here come the caribou
And the birds of song
Washing away the endless white
For spots of brightness.

Winter's end comes with soggy streets
And green saplings
Of young love and renewed friendships.

Out of death comes life
For the baby birds will flap their wings
And cry to their mothers.
The wild mare will gallop to her secret place
And lay in the green fields again to bring a
new life to her band.

And with winter's end comes song and color
Until with icy fingers she comes again
To claim the land in her white throne.
 
I find it very nice and also literary very good... a lot of images of sight and other figures. It almost makes me seeing what is written
