Winter in Vitebsk


Over Vitebsk, Painting by Marc Chagall



Crunchy cold snow
Chilly Cobble stoned streets
Crackling crusted shingles

Spring leaves grown
Spread their green
Softly fell, now gone

Steel flavored air
Silent sliced arias
Slithering breeze awaits

Sparkling window crystals
Sun glistening clouded
Summer openings closed

Turrets towering towards sky
Tourmaline trees tempted by stars
Twisted twigs turning beside them-selves

Lone man floats silently
Lazily loosing sheaf
Lists, tethered by staff

Long last look
Willingly loam
Loving light, lifting
