Small Moments Make a Day
a touch of snowfall
brings beauty to commuting
and calms my heartache

my name in Dari
made for me by my student
language: such a gift

Sun in the Nude
As Bright As Snow
Ski Reverie
ski day reverie
filled with powder grins,
soft turns, silent flakes
always a long day
yet happiness takes its time
falling from the sky

Ski Religion
Breathe. Wait.
Ode to Winter
Girls’ Weekend
post-pandemic flight
the first for me; with my girls
to steal a weekend

beautiful DC:
the center of our country,
sordid past exposed


a bar mitzvah morn
in year five-seven-eight-three
from our first beliefs

a city forest
walking distance from temple
Shabbat salom. Peace.



my happy daughters
finding books, happiness, love
on our girls’ weekend


More than a Milestone
getting her to here
after COVID/grief trauma?
a grin worth winning
