The snow is melting.
Too quickly. Too soon.

The trees - with their boughs and bare branches - have captured my eye.

I stopped. I looked. I listened.
I waited.
I'm not even sure - what for.

And then - she appeared.
From somewhere over there. Beyond here - for sure.

My knight in brown horse's armor.
A beauty.

I blinked once...then twice.
Am I dreaming? Is this real?

And - just like that - she disappeared.
