Even the vole eating seed

under the birdfeeder

seems slowed by cold.

January 6: Ice

Deepest cold so far.
I stand at the window
watching the river turn to ice.

January 5: The ever-astonishing full moon

I knew it was coming.

So why did the rising moon

surprise me?

January 4: Puzzle

Waking to snow

all day we build the puzzle,

creating order.

January 3: The pond ices over

Wanting to walk on water

the kids can't wait

to test the new ice.

January 2: After the movie

Moon's even brighter.

In one house we drive past

someone's cooking dinner.

January 1, 2015: First day, sunset

New Year's Day--

over frozen salt marsh

sunset warms the sky.
