At First Trailer Light

At First Trailer Light

Ambient air arouses the valley.
A hint of nature's scent.
Chilled bones creak, and crawl

out of comforting warm covers,
moving like snails in the frigid
morning trailer air.

Passive, contemplative the mood,
no fear, anger or dread-
only admiration for the mountains.

Still, snow-covered, blowing
winter's breath, expelling energy
to jumpstart human engines.
