the softness
and mysterious white light
oh to be enveloped in silence
The Sky Sighs Snow
quiet
falls down and piles up
manifesting the white depth of solitude
Ferocious Beauty
the birch
bows down
to winter
How It Comes
barely noticeable at first
the white outline gathering
on every branch and blade
A Sugaring Snow
here for just a moment
not enough to increase
the mountain’s hips
Lazy Snow
dawdling flakes
in no hurry
to reach the ground
We Gather Near The Hearth As
Window Panes In The Woods
Winter’s Enigma
Unexpected Snow
At The Border
The Work Of Faith
Holding Whatever Is Offered
This Is How Winter Begins
Darkness Gives Us Light
Signal Spot
Lightness
Fare Thee Well
We
Mountainside
River Birch In Snowfall
Seeker
Dried
Before the first flake falls
the dried wild flower
shares a flurry of beauty.
