Seattle Surprise
By Cynthia Sheridan


Winter birds on white wool snow. Fir trees trimmed in lace
Creatures curled in fur-lined nests as nightfall they embrace


Crunchy thumps, like a muted drum, from neighbors passing by
Briefly pierce the silence with their restless lullaby


Icy dewdrops drift and fall so gently on my face
A frozen moment, mine to keep . How sweet this hallowed place
