"Bare branches in winter are a form of writing..."
~ Billy Collins 'Winter Syntax'
Watch as the winter trees display their, as Alice Oswald calls them, 'wishbone' selves.
Winter Trees - William Carlos Williams
All the complicated details
of the attiring and
the disattiring are completed!
A liquid moon
moves gently among
the long branches.
Thus having prepared their buds
against a sure winter
the wise trees
stand sleeping in the cold.
