December 7: Chill a moment

Rushing to get out of the cold,
I'm stopped by calls
of geese overhead.

December 6: Christmas by the Sea

Beyond the lights
and crowded sidewalks
sighs the dark harbor.

December 5: Wicked dark

Even in this dark
I can tell
those are white pines.

December 4: Christmas lights make the long night easier to bear

Through the darkness,
haze of red and green lights--
neighbor's tree.

December 3: Abundance

Open your eyes to
what's out there. A friend saw
ten Snowy Owls today.

December 2: Advent

Little window, opened,
reveals a snowman.
Outside, rain streams down.

December 1: Owl on the rocks

Snowy Owl seen today at Rye Harbor, NH

Cold white stone

at ocean's edge--

owl visitor.
