More winter poems

by Pat Laster

16 degrees
cardinals at the feeder
others on the snow
~~~~

in front of the fire--
no concern about stoking,
loading on split wood
~~~~

brown tuft
of oak leaves skitters
across the snow
~~~~

sock-and-slippered feet
on the hearth treadling
the rocker
~~~~

sun
highlighting icy trees
and melting the snow
~~~~

warm Epiphany
in the far yard, I pick
three daffodil buds

  1. Yesterday was warm and sunny in Dallas. My Japanese maples are starting to bud already!

  2. I like your picture of the bald eagle. Poems are nice, too!
