Subtle Spring

the crabapple bloom

has taken its time this year

to brighten our yard

PowderPoo

pomapoo powder

won’t complain of April snow

snow play any day

Catch Me a Breeze

a sunny Sunday

is made for panting puppies

searching for blue skies

The Best and Worst Time

clouds that light the sky

over friends who will still play

childhood’s sunset

Snowpocalypse

a journey through snow
inspired Pi Day baking
with just a few prints

March Mantra

skiing is breathing

fresh snow brings fresh life to life

winter is heaven

Seasonal Adore Disorder

a cloud beneath us–

powder day brings heaven home

as flakes float our love

Fresh Powder

ski like life needs it
soon the powder will be gone
and we’ll miss this choice

Comfort Food

fish chowder, biscuits:

sometimes a weeknight work night

is worth every bite

Frostbitten

snow swirled around
in exchange for a strike
(we’ll save our signs though)

only a few came
to fill the seats of our schools
(because weather bites)

even in winter
no teacher will miss a day
(we’re there for our kids)

someday they’ll see that
(through blizzards of ignorance)
until they see us
