Permafrost

Running upon tender permafrost 
The fragile life on sure limbs 
Scuffed hands with lucent thoughts  
to touch 
Seasons unflinching. 
 
Still, the settled soil gives way to blue 
Clinging to winter’s craft.
Hope is the World.

    I love your poem. It took me a couple of reads to notice your words under the picture, “Hope is the world”, which adds another layer. Beautiful.
