This side of winter

By Nate Carman

Aching, the bend of wrist
Longing, the outdoor tryst
Stinging, the wind it blows
Seeking, the breeze that flows
Cracking, the branches break
Looking, the roots they take
Freezing, the waters crack
Dreaming, the stream to track
Hurting, the joints that bend
Wishing, the cold to end
