Last day of the month –
January going out
like a springy lamb.

Below zero here –
actual temp, not wind-chill –
snow squeaks and crunches.

Snow squalls hammer the
village — a swirling whiteness –
time to drink coffee.

Lost a great writer –
few books but great influence –
J. D. Salinger.

I like Obama’s
speeches — sharp, introspective,
pointed, and so smart.

Heavy air means snow –
I can feel it and smell it –
anticipation.

A netbook zips my
way via FedEx. Gonna
make that machine sing!

Ooh, Vegas. You zapped
my brain for days on end. But,
I’m together now.

Lewis Carroll and
Mozart are birthday buddies –
both born on this day.

Coffee brews and the
smell wends through the downstairs and
draws me toward the pot.
