Stillness

a great white
expanse.
swirling in its rigidity.
His mighty paws
holding back,
the inevitable.
Her face shines brightly
upon the field of cold.
Beautiful.
Dead.
Yet within this ocean of purity,
life stirs
not as pristine,
but alive
and raw-
bursting through
for
the EXPERIENCE.
for
the MOMENT.
for HIM
for HER
for you.
for
me.
