JERRY JORDISON - New Liskeard, Ontario

arctic reality

sunrays
 sparkled the crisp snow
   sending spectrums
     dancing over the tundra

an Inuit child
 stood frozen, wide eyed
   heart dancing
     to the ghost lights

a ptarmigan
 emerged from the snow
   greeted the morning sun
     dazzled by shimmering lights

the child, delighted
 snatched the bird
   twisted its neck
     and ran home to Mom
with food for dinner
