Snowbound

The coloured windows of the houses dance
Like the happiest of dreams before me,
In this snow that hides
Your house from mine.


And you must be at the window
Watching the storm
Drive numberless flakes from the darkness
To the light of your own window,

Where they starilly die inside you
Inviolate from their flight...

In this snow that hides
Your house from mine.
