Lady Sun
peeps
through a
cloudy
keyhole

Today's sunrise

a variegated ribbon

of orange, red, and pink

stretching for miles

March 6, 2016: Thaw

Melting ice

and sunshine

transform

into

diamond points

of light

I stop for a parade

of boys to pass,

bright plastic toboggans

tucked under arms--

wings ready for flight--

cheeks red with cold

and anticipation

Match 5, 2016: First signs

64

Amid

last fall’s leaves

snowdrops

lift

shy faces

Waning moon:
translucent parchment
cut out

by a wavering hand.

March 4, 2016: Spring slumbers

63

Sleeping trees
do you dream
of sunshine
and leaves?

Dormant:

today's images

are buried deep

beneath the heavy 

slump of snow

Hydrangea
oak leaf
blade of grass
relics
of past
seasons

Upside down ocean

Shoreline of cloud

Sea of light.

River of light

flows down

to a silvery

delta

of sunshine

February 20, 2014, day 40

Ocean of snow

Ship wrecked branches

sink beneath the waves

flotsam of a forgotten fall.

March 1, 2016: Night

The border

between 

day

and night

is a violet ribbon

riding flame

Savage winter

bares its teeth 

but Lady Sun

will not bow her head
