Chilled Crystal Walk
Douglas Blair 1951 (London)
Picture yourself in this cold walk, but only briefly.
The night compels me
The scarf is warm
The trail is virgin
The drifts have come.
The stars resplendent
The Moon a friend.
The wind a Love Song.
The bluish trend.
For such is winter
And walks are good
As magic settles
The Neighbourhood.
Yes magic captures
The touch and eyes.
And branch-dropped snow
Brings a felt surprise
