Discordant Tambourine


Discordant tambourine
Shiver like silver ripples

Vibrations through liquid glass.
Light sparkle above like diamond shadows
Against the white sky.
Tingling cold and new as the snow
Foreshadowed in your icy wind
That scalds against my weary skin
Slashes at my weeping eyes and cries its lonely lament
To the trembling trees.

Beat your resonating melody
Deep within my bones.
Pulse, merry calamity within my breast.
Clang the melancholy song to the marrow of my soul
Then rise up again, up again
Like a phoenix on this winter night.
