Leaving

by Julie Bihn

I hear.
Drips hit the tree's leaves.
Noisy
Rain
Falls.

I feel.
The cold breeze forces
Water
To
Dry.

I dream.
His hair shines in the
Snowdrift
Tousled
Bright.

I see.
His breath floats in the
Air
White
Free.

I look.
His green eyes meet with
Mine
Beautiful
Wet.

I smile.
He turns and walks off.
Footprints
Crushing
Snow.
