Beautiful in it's own way when the ice glistens on the trees, but maybe rough on the trees if it stays any length of time.  The snow is beautiful in it's own way.  I still have frostbitten type hands from my earlier love of playing in it for hours  as a kid when there was a big snow.

each season has its own unique beauty...
and the trees bend and blend to fit themselves into each one....they do look bare and barren in winter, but its only temporary, as you say so well.....

I am surrounded by the beauty of winter and the beauty of your poetry.

Lo Eburns I think any take on Nature is quite worthy. it is hard to think passionately about frozen trees etc,  but you seem to have the knack. Wrap up warmly.

to clarify the last line, the fields become tracked by the digging and rutting of tractors, farming machines,

Great stuff here, IMHO.
I love nature and seasons and trees above all.   Observing trees captivates me.

eburns, Nice to meet you.  I loved your opening stanzas, and feel very embraced by them.  It's the way winter is here in the Midwest.  I didn't understand the last line, or it went over my head.  But the poem made me think of not just the weather cycles and season changes, but the spiritual renewal possible at any age.  TY!
