Snow & Spring

Water wells like tears
As the snow retreats in the sun
As we wait for spring.

Winter Tree

Newspaper adorns
the branches and rustles like leaves
As we wait for spring.

Guy from Corporate II

He reads the signals
Pitches a low deadly curve
You swing - it is a miss.

Guys from Corporate I

Guys from corporate
features sharp, all right angles
They pitch new ideas.

Snowstorm

Snow blows down the street
Head lamps highlight circles of white
Slow cars creep homeward.

Birthday Wish

Birthday are empty
Occasions - McDonald's when
You want a good meal.

Birthdays never live
Up to expectations - you
Want roses but get weeds.

A birthday is best
Forgotten - if not marked
It passes gracefully away
Like any other day.

January Thaw

The snowy blanket
Shrinks from the shoulders of the
Dowdy faded grass.
