a heavy handed sifting
of a confectioners sugar snow
the woods now candy land
Candy
Quiet
snow falling
and trees breathing
the only sounds
In The White Quietude
like fresh snow
tranquility settled
over everything
The Up of Down
snow falls
and climbs
the palisades
Port in the Storm
hanging on
with gratitude
for what is available
Accumulation
blizzard snow
so fine it can be missed
as it gathers in inches and feet
Flight Delay
milkweed seeds shiver
reluctant to fly
side by side with the snow
Tresel
outlined as it is obscured
all the same
the bridge remains
New Horizons
winter caresses
the line of the limb
the reach of the branch
every new horizon
Drowsy Drones
soft as the falling snow
the hum and thrum
of sleeping bees
Hold Fast
our hearts recognize each other
let them touch and then hold fast
like birch in snow
never letting go
True Size
big snow, tall trees
reminders of
how tiny we are
