Icy porch, Feb’ 23

difficult to grasp 
the thinnest layer of ice 
wreaking great mayhem

sleet on commute, Jan ‘23

just before daylight 
the sound of sleet on metal 
no fun for commute

2023.01.10: sounding

piercing the darkness 
the honks of geese overhead 
homeward together

how far would you go 
to see the greatest wonder 
would the light change you

2022.12.23: new hope

solstice sunrise, Dec ‘22

bitter cold sunrise 
day after winter solstice 
a new beginning
