that’s pale and still as mist in a field
while outside in the street every gate’s shut firm,
every face as cold as steel.

In winter’s house there’s a bed
that is spread with frost and feathers,
that gleams in the half-light like rain in a disused yard
or a pearl in a choked-up stream.

asleep in a dream of light that grows out
of the dark, a flame you can hold in your hand

In winter’s house there’s a tale
