What more do you require?

The tracks leave impressions like fingers on memory foam

and the snow blanket ripples and heaves, underneath it’s home.

The grass blades stand like hairs on my cold arm

and the trees cluster in groups, keeping each other warm.

The sun sears through the clouds, like white fire.

All is quiet, what more do you require?
