Door blocked by drifts, wind
knocks me back. Cold smack of snow
shouts Stay inside, fool.

January thaw
Like skin, snow sags droops
puckers. Tears slide across a
hard crusty surface.
Winter storm
Snowfall as music —
light flakes grace notes, blizzard chords
pounded in fury.
January thaw
Sodden ground swampy
a mash of leaves, plants, flowers
once distinct, now soup.
Winter sun
Summer is golden
butterscotch, January
skim milk, thin weak pale.
Overlooked
Forgotten summer
umbrella aged by winter’s
wig of heavy snow.
Over the holidays
Ate bad stuff. Gained weight.
Hate myself. Still, I think, There’s
always tomorrow…
On a cold winter’s night
Kitchen windows fogged,
oven-baked chicken is the
scent of homecoming.
San Diego
Shivering at the
airport. Colder than O’Hare.
Turn back, refund flight.
Depression
Bright summer days no
friend to sadness. Solace lies
in winter’s dark chill.
