Striving to see the white - v2

Striving to see the white - v2


Bright sun overhead

reflecting, refracting off the ice

driving by quickly

on the ribbon of asphalt

striving to see the white

in all its beauty, its grandeur.


Striving to see the white

so many shades of color

of texture, of dimension

snow not a monolith,

monochrome, tonal qualities,

a palette of infinite hues.


Glare in our vision

driving by quickly

striving to see the white

its shades, its textures,

offering so much, revealing,

if we look more closely.
