Yew bushes outside
my window provide green screen –
softly filters light.

Blue sky this morning –
a change from low gray scudding
clouds of yesterday.

It’s May Day, May Day –
not a cause for alarm but
of celebration.

Radiator sends
heat and hissing my way though
it’s warmish outside.

Possum duo dead
on the road — always in pairs –
always makes me sad.

Morning chorus of
the frogs and red-winged blackbirds –
din from the wetlands.

Had to scrape the frost
from the window this morning –
our winter hangs on.

Snowing on Easter –
just a few flakes but, really –
it’s beyond the pale.

The rain is coming –
what are you going to do? –
will come regardless.

Snow covers the ground –
surprise for the morning walk –
slipping and sliding.
