Sacrificial dance
Downy snowflakes whirl and fall,
Kiss the earth – and melt.

Two days before spring.

Rainy winter day
Geese stand like statues of geese
On the sodden lawn.

Swarm over a frozen stream
Like summer midges.

Stitched on a gray quilt of sky
Gulls soar silently.

The rays of the rising sun
Bring light but no warmth.

Turns dull yellow winter grass
Into sparkling gold.

Scornful teenager
Mock my furry winter hat;
You’re not cool…you’re cold!

Ice on the sidewalks
A discarded Christmas tree
Shelters the sparrows.
