Winter Consumated

a bride was she

sweet cool breath

lace on tree branches

dancing

under falling snowstars



a virgin was she

penetrated

quick black footprints

moaning winds

mourning innocence flown



a widow is she

cloaked in white

quiet and waiting

still

hooded gray



Dead is she

frozen shroud

masks death

digging deep

into black soil



Buried is she

'neath moist warm blankets

sleeping

dreaming

of her wedding day
