2/10/2021 – green

Though diamonds coat the ground
I often dream of green

2/5/2021 – winter snow

Like blankets on the frozen ground
The whitest snow resides
It dampens all the sound around
And calms the soul besides

Fresh snow
Lying on the ground
Eddying around
Sitting soft
Waiting to be stepped in

As I espy outside the falling snow
A fire within me wakes to go and play
To lay upon the drift by my window
To be untroubled on a troubled day

White powder falls and coats the ground
With light and speckled flecks
In eddies dances it around
And puts me in a hex

I stare and stare and stare yet more
Transfixed on sky’s white touch
Until my eyes are stricken sore
By staring overmuch.
