12th Street

An old trolley track
Slices the street with silver
Sunlight after rain.

Stirrings

Hives begin to buzz
Anthills rise from sidewalk cracks
Cities wake for spring.

New Snow

Even city streets
Temporarily perfect
The second snowfall.

Old Snow

Heaps of dirty snow
Still punctuate the sidewalk
Time for the next storm.

Ice

A beam through the clouds
Skidding across the sidewalk
Sunlight on thin ice.

Snow III

Winter decorates
Frosts the gingerbread sidewalks
With snowflake sugar.

Morning Sun

Cold winter morning
The sunny side of the roof
Tiled with pigeons.

Rowhouse

A sign on the door
Behind security bars:
“Welcome to our home.”
