Night pushed back, a dark
blanket kicked aside as the
sun stays wide awake.
Daylight savings spring ahead

Tapping maples
Stark trees hide flowing
sap like a dormant love that
awakens in spring.
Almost spring
Snowpack seems solid
but underneath, droplets sing
of melting caverns.
Longest night of the year
Soon, darkness recedes.
But tonight I wrap myself
in velvet-starred black.
Driving kids to camp
Flat mapped names turn in-
to forested hills, roads wind
towards adventure.
Already mid-July
And so summer goes
like fishing line cast into
swift moving waters
May day
When’s the right time to
wash winter blankets? Last night
I saw snowflakes fall.
Long walk in sunshine
Dog is lagging yet
clear skies pale green leaves urge me
to linger longer.
First warm day
Rake leaves left over
from fall. Clean porch furniture.
Spring into action.
Harbinger of spring
An unexpected
crocus emerges, smiling
from a brown leaf pile.
