tricks
winter trees ablaze
branches stark on flaming sky
one of nature’s tricks
moment
throwing back the drapes
startled by dawn’s crimson blaze
a moment and gone
time
time to sit and watch
sunlit water on steel falls
a bronze fish leaping
#47
the paper shredder
whispering a requiem
the visions we shared
#46
hail stones clattering
tight faces behind drawn hoods
lean into the storm
#45
a truck rumbling by
the mind snags, unfinished tasks
colliding with dreams
#44
the house still asleep
I go out in my night-clothes
to sit with the dog
#43
blue skies but the sun
has a frosty countenance
and a nippy mood
