Artisans of the Arctic
Artisans of the Arctic, working around the clock,
looking for supplies and taking stock,
search for one colossal piece of material
to test its buoyancy and put on trial.
They cut symmetrical pieces of patterned snow,
space them apart then let them go
as a myriad of flakes to ride with the wind
and reach the ground for winter to begin.
This is for the Belt and Beyond, Winter Issue.
