Solstice

In center of a geometric shine 

Regard Orion at meridian 

Caught a moment in iceperfect line. 

 

Leaded on trees, ice traceries intertwine 

Windshattered radiance and obsidian 

In center of a geometric shine. 

 

Dreamspinning down darkness, snow is mine. 

I walk on darkness where a river ran 

Caught a moment in iceperfect line. 

 

Crystals whirling down the night  

confine 

The dreams I breathe here to a tiny span 

In center of a geometric shine. 

 

This hourglass filled with snow will realign. 

After the longest night, the day began, 

Caught a moment in iceperfect line. 

 

A shadow on the silence of design 

I watch for someone like a son of man 

In center of a geometric shine 

Caught a moment in iceperfect line.
