Cuddled ears in treasured hat
and shoulders swathed in Grandma's wool,
she breathed into her frozen knees
while sea spray dampened winter draught.
Ocean lip of shingle gold
couched her by a knowing sea,
where infinite, the granite sky,
indulged her dreams and counselled doubt.
Horizon's enigmatic void,
a frozen view in frozen time,
placed her in perspective's eye,
where opportunities abide.
Restored by Nature's powerful thrust,
imbued with wisdom, time amassed,
she took her leave of winter's gift
and stepped the path to fireside's hug.
