Hope Springs
By umbugjug

i know it's a well used title, but i hope this come across how i meant it to.


Cold, aching

Bitter cold

Whips around the mountain air

As I visit Yellowstone alone.

 

This spring is clearer than any other.

 

Boiling water, steam

Dancing on the surface.

Heat shimmers distorting

Vermilion, russet and coppery stains, 

Time's jewelled record.



I think I might

Jump in

To feel the heat,

A warm touch again.

 

But I just

stand by

Hope Springs.
