February Moon

Snow moon when the frost blooms
and grips the land in its vice
water like glass and frozen grass
with glittering flowers of ice.

Wolf moon when the gale looms
a hunter that bites to the bone
silent and dark, freezing and stark
the earth's as hard as a stone.

Budding moon growth in the gloom
shoots thrusting up to the light
warmth from the cold, new from the old
winter is losing the fight.
