Fields of Crystal

A November morning
between autumn and winter
fields of crystal
a frozen confection
catching my eye with light

Fields illumined, sparkling
not yet warming
ten degrees below freezing
brushed by Jack’s paint
in glisten and sugar

Soon melting, lifted away
but for these moments
magic and wonder
frozen on the fields
as far as the eye can see

“Fields of Crystals”
the fields were alive with frost this morning
on NH Route 107 in Epsom, NH, Southbound,
with many vistas of white over the reeds and grain stalks, as
at 43.213132,-71.285279
going to the Deerfield Community School
