Winter Fairies
Fairies shrouded in white, dancing, whirling
left and right,
sporting the winter game.
Swirling beyond,
they turn and in step
follow the icy wind.
Fairies, together,
spin and spiral about
above the white below
that reaches up
to touch the grey sky –
the veil of morning.
At last the fairies come to rest
and gently sink into
the drift below.
Swiftly, they vanish
and join together as one.
