To enjoy it's shade,
feel it's leafy breezes upon your face...
Your love, like cactus fruit
its tiny teeth sharp and taunting...
Buried 'neath the woodland snow

As silent wind sleeps
war drums beat from a distance...
my dragon; my love
conjuring a bewitched dream...
She sends a message
with breath blowing hot and cold...
Crystal ice adorns
blankets of snowy sapplings...
Fragrant scents
Leap...
Darkness fell upon another summer
drenched in misty midnight and I...
