Lake
by ryall via jane - Jungle Drum Newswire Sunday, Jan 17 2016, 1:55am
international / poetry / post

frost freezes the surface of the lake
green banks
now covered in snow
allow no colour
but pure white
and the translucency of ice

yet beneath the ice
liquid warmer water
resists solidification
and nurtures all manner
of life
waiting patiently
for colour
to overcome the sterile
whiteness
