in this moment, i
am walking in the park,
in the bitter cold of the prairie winter

swaddled in scarves and hat and gloves
and layers of sweaters and jeans

shivering
shoulders hunched against the wind
and blowing snow

beneath my boots
snow is squeaking, creaking

above my head
bare branches
birds
squirrels

in this moment
breathing in the beauty around me

i am warm
