Ice on my window
looks like a Jackson Pollack

More snow is coming—
I can smell it and sense it—
the air feels heavy.

brings thoughts of Spring although it’s

you’re reading ’bout a frozen

such quiet invades the house
at this early hour.

fighting o’er a bit of cloth
trapped in a big tree.

from the pines where it coats boughs
like royal icing.
