Walk Around Frame Lake Poem by Vishal Sharma

Waves of snow on a frozen lake
Makes me do a double take.

The spruce’s shadow far below
Glows blue against the sunlit snow.

In a breeze beside the lake
Birch bark flaps squeak clack and
scrape.

In leeward shadow of a bay
The scene is dipped in blue array.

Now the sun is sinking low
Through the trees its eye does glow.

Dry snow crunches beneath my feet
As I walk to a steady beat.

The sun, low in its orb, does turn
A distant building’s windows burn.
