Winter Through the Window in March
at first, it is heavy winter
and then it is lightly not winter–
lasting a tiny moment, allowing the crocuses and the snowdrops
to sing their siren songs of spring,
knowing all the while—
it will be winter through the window in March again
Morning Light
she writes poems with her eyes closed
in the darkness of the night,
but the words escape her memory
with the early-morning light
Lately
puppies in the snow
cold winter landscapes
greys and blues and soft amber horizons
Winter
a bare beauty—
solitary,
exposed,
implied,
intuited
Early
early, with a hush and a heavy silence,
while the kitchen smells of coffee
and the pup sleeps under warm blankets,
the sun calls at the door
The Dying Day
dark thoughts
seep into the dampness
of the dying day
Reflections of Autumn
Excerpt: Woodswoman
“Life seems to have no beginning and no ending. Only the steady expansion of trunk and root, the slow pileup of duff and debris, the lap of water before it becomes ice, the patter of raindrops before they turn to snowflakes.”
from Woodswoman by Anne LaBastille, 1976
