Waiting,
wondering
when this
whiteness
will melt away.

February Flummox
Sunny skies greet us.
Who would ever think big storms
are headed our way?

A Matter Of Priorities
Fallen branches,
melting snow –
post storm
cleanup begins.
Birds ask to be fed first.

Renewed Understanding
In the midst
of all this snow and ice,
I understand more than ever
the wisdom of
letting sleeping dogs lie.

Night
Night didn’t fall.
It slowly crept upon me,
rubbing its soft darkness
against my busyness.

Cold Weather, Colder Hearts
Power outages
at home and in the senate –
an unfunny Valentine.

Knox And The Crow
Knox watched and listened
to the scolding crow,
then glancing at the birdseed,
he wagged his tail,
shook his head.
” I don’t even like that stuff,” he said.

February Fullness
White hush of snow
Birds of many colors
A Feast for the eyes.

Fresh Start
Like wild berries,
translucent raindrops hang from
Japanese maple.
It’s amazing what finding
new environments can do.

Masked
A cloud
masks
the sun –
February
Halloween.
