first frost

when you come of age
and discover
for the first time frost,
the thin layer
making the grass white,
the windows
glazed.
you kneel down to touch it.
and now,
at this age, it still amazes
you. leaning over
gently on your knees,
to wave your hand across
the tendrils of frost covered
grass and leaves.
blowing a circle
onto the wintered glass.
