Mid-February poems




no school tomorrow
ignoring dark and bedtime
he plays in the snow

a coating of ice
on yesterday's snow
his wet clothes still wet

backing down the hill
she couldn't get up
three inches of snow

snow's reflection
making it brighter inside ~
tricks with his yo-yo

[above poems written while Billy
 and I were living in Arkadelphia]
~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~~ ~

cautionary tale:
with enough ice
any shoe is a skate
[Found poem: from Dennis the Menace comic, '97]

an added whiteness
on the dandelion puff
after last night's frost
[Published, Muse of Fire]
