Amongst the chaos
You will find
Buried deep but still with shine
The messy world has come to a halt
The blurred out world has come back to its default
With a single flake the world will stop
The crystallized water with the fresh powder on top
The winter has come left nothing behind
Moments like this are the reason I can unwind
The green, the yellow, the red have withered away into something new
A new reality that will only last an hour or two
The branches hang heavy with the weight of the snow
A foot above the ground they hang very low
Nothing is to be seen for miles around
Nothing is to be heard, the quiet is the only sound
The silence of the snow falling all about
The trees part ways revealing a snow covered route Needles stab out of the pine
All alone
This trail is all mine
Breathing in the cold stings my throat
The leaves are frozen to the floor
With snow as its only coat
Here it’s still
Amongst the chaos
With this chill
Empty landscape with nothing around
I finally found what I was looking for
Gazing over this snow covered town
A time capsule buried deep
This tranquility is
A memory to always keep
