[J. Nordavind '92]
|
|
The night is cold and brilliantly clear.
|
Peak after peak of glorius ice mountains
|
rose into the dome of the darkened skies.
|
Jagged crystal teeth queezed between
|
the depths of the jet-black fjords.
|
|
The mountains lost their sharpness and became
|
soft and blue-tinged as the great winter day.
|
Which would grow on to be a dim twilight
|
that glimmered slowly to life.
|
|
Above the peaks the Polar sky flickered with
|
the ghostly radiance of the northern light.
|
A frozen lake discharge into an equally frozen stream.
|
The cold is cruel and unforgiving like the landscape.
|
Up north.
