Birds descend to seeds /
Hanging in the winter air. /
Late sun shows mercy.

Let us
Let us ride balloons: /
Up to the heavens and moons. /
Light as grace and stars.

Once again
Cold day for treatment. /
Chemotherapy’s embrace /
In both weather and bones.

Mask
Abandoned or lost /
We will not find our way home /
By failing to care.

Peeking
Peek: sun between clouds, /
Eyes between slats — onto world: /
Seeing and seeming.

Buds
Crimson and bulging /
Weathering winter’s embrace /
Buds engaged and full.

Almost
Spring is almost there /
Budding slightly beyond sight /
And Winter’s dark cane.

Colors
Colors of winter. /
Snow and holy berries, /
Grace within the cold.

Cold in the air. /
Snow on the Magnolia. /
The palm of winter.

Looking backward /
No one remembers the rain /
Only the hammers.
