hiding – Leaf And Twig

Following Instructions

mother said
stay off the road
hide if trouble comes

peek a boo
with
the morning moon

sticky snow
camouflages
every tree as white birch

winter gathers
at the pond’s edge
hiding cold amongst the reeds

the sun obscured
a wintry day
the willow weeps

true bug can tells no lies
your garage and siding
is where he likes to hide

watching from the woods
a gentle soul
gages her safety

Clouds hide away the sun.
Cold paints the world blue.
Is this living on the moon?
