No cold snap this – more
like an icy thunderbolt
echoing too long.

Bridging The Generational Divide
My tongue is raw from biting;
my cheeks swell with

My granddaughter,
in turn, does very little balking.
Our lunch together is
an unreal, but satisfying, success.

of exercise will become
the poetry of motion.

Don’t know if it’s that I’m old
or just freezing cold.

Across the stilled pond
snow slid in a sideways dance
with wind, its unsteady partner.

Day 134 – Warming Up
Snow-bound in Virginia,
I warm up, not by
shoveling my way out,
but by exercising and staying in.

January Promise
Clouded sun, peeking
through frosted branches – promise
of cold, shining light.

Day 133 – Restart
When I miss a day
as I did just yesterday,
I begin anew today
and continue on from here.

At Seventy Five – The Saga Continues
My mind’s become so open as soon as
something enters,
it hurries
out the
door.
