starlight & stanzas

Alyeska

Chalet homes,

Snow bent branches,

Crowded – but quiet,

White haven nearby.

 

Warm and golden

Ski hill lights.

Or is that a Christmas tree

In the sky?

 

Through the low clouds

To the blue,

We watch (from our room)

The mountain tram fly.

 

Snowflakes

On the car window.

Or crystallized tears

As we say goodbye?
