Winter sun

Summer is golden
butterscotch, January
skim milk, thin weak pale.

House near Woodstock

A’s dream–a fairy
cottage in the woods–simply
too good to be real.

Overlooked

Forgotten summer
umbrella aged by winter’s
wig of heavy snow.

Paleo

Carbs like clouds. When gone
clarity returns. Blue sky
thinking open mind.

San Diego

Shivering at the
airport. Colder than O’Hare.
Turn back, refund flight.

Snow blind

Spiraling flakes, like
small hands opening wide, feel
their way down to earth.

Hint of spring

Earthy smell of fresh
mud awakens winter-dulled
senses like coffee.

Ocean waves

I type in a dim
dark room listening to surf.
There’s an app for that.

Buckingham Fountain

What naiad dances
in your pulsing, surging heart,
calling me to her?

Cold snap

Lulled by summer’s false
start, forty degrees reminds
us that April lies.
