Inspired by the sight of a crabapple encrusted with ice.
The Ice Aegis Protecting OR Berried Beneath Ice

Aspects of passed time deliver an essence
As special as a graceful senescence
Can be

To remove a frame from the reels of your sight
To be moved by moments so small and so slight
Folly?

An ice storm has struck us, it's covered the trees
A vice of our climate? The ice it can seize
Lifeforms

A berry encrusted, a blanket indited
Of ice, by our nature, her storms uninvited
Transformed

A light not extinguished but obscured by dark
In spite of herself, she adorned the spark
Bejeweled
