Battlefield afresh

Into day
the grey mist rises
over feet
bundled neat
The wise accepting defeat
that end comprises

Waters ebb
as the edges flow
into dark
Absent spark
hidden within the bodies
sliding as they freeze

The winds burn
crevices in flesh
dainty lace
fading grace
tattoos of delicate mesh
Battlefield afresh
