Blurred Car Headlights

Blurred car headlights
passing by in the distance
through the fog
of falling snow
and seen through the gaps
between whitened trees.
Without their occasional light
the world this evening
would be nothing but
white and grey, just
white and grey.
Car headlights
now and then
through the night
as the snow descends.
Lights of humanity
on a dull dusk
end of day.
