Cougar in the Snow Cougar footprints mark a stalking trail across the vast virgin snow, winter sticks of summer grasses jut above the layered whiteness icy winds shake the grey-barked desolate barren aspens narrow tree trunks casting blue shadows on the snow
the cougar crouches low where the footprints end among the powdery snow his tense body waits a white rabbit hides camouflaged in stillness cougar cautious in blue-white landscape
lifts his paw suspended in space paused between life and death of winter’s harsh survival
rabbit and cougar cougar or rabbit waiting.
