plunging temps
blasts out of the Arctic northwest
deceptively sunny skies

plunging temps
blasts out of the Arctic northwest
deceptively sunny skies
the morning after love’s feast
hearts & bellies, full
more than enough to go around
puppy’s pawprint
three loopy hearts
a not-too-mushy card —
signatures of love
trees cast skeletal shadows
on new-fallen snow
I watch for dark-eyed juncos
the jarring, delightful blinding
of snow on the ground once again
tube watercolors in a sealed glass jar
like sweets in a candy store
I almost don’t want to disturb them
the browning of winter
this is what
we’ve done to the world
house is (fairly) clean
food, snacks, beverages: all check
don’t care (too much) about commercials
we just want to see a good game!
secretions—
thoughts flying
everywhere
winter sunshine
I love how the curve of my spine
makes friends with the floor
