A Walk in Winter Woods [Free Verse]

A photograph from the Roswell Greenway Trail in Roswell, Georgia, north of Atlanta.
In Winter,
   when blue sky shows
 between the twiggy,
   bare branches,
 the forest is not so
   claustrophobic,
   but sound and wind,
       alike,
   carry through.

A mind can roam
   between the bracing
      breezes.

little green sprouts,
 the only verdant hue:
  barren Winter woods.

Photograph of a Great Blue Heron crossing a pond along the Roswell Greenway Trail in Roswell, Georgia. 
Skittish is the Great Blue Heron.
   It feels when you're stopped and starin'
 and will crisscross water like Charon
   to keep you on the other side.

Photograph of a white tiger taken in Mysore Zoo in Karnataka, India.
The White Tiger is very cute,
   napping in its white tiger suit.
 But while awake, is hard to take:
   Is it nonconformist, or fake?

Does the bug
   atop a wildflower
 think itself master
   of all it surveys?
