The rain pocks the snow,
Ice and slush mix in puddles —
The bleak midwinter.

Cars encased in ice,
I hear Tim scrape scritch scrape scrape
as I lie in bed.

Ice the driveway’s length
means walking like a penguin
to get to the car.

Icy stalagmites
growing between the windows.
Who knew that’d happen!

Ice on my window
looks like a Jackson Pollack
work of white on white.

Morning swamp walk in
brisk, pre-storm air. Skim of ice—
shimmery water.

White snow and blue sky
are lovely. Sidewalk skating
rink keeps me inside.

Standing water on
sidewalks obscured ice layer.
Morning walk cut short.

Dog and I slip and
slide along the icy walk.
Real fear of falling.

Winding around lakes
on snow-packed trails, the crack of
twigs keeps me alert.
