partyers, skiers: blue sky,

somewhere in the stand of pines

dark soul of the woods

Nativity scene still up

in the yard of the man

who lost his son.

February 2: Brigid's Day

Awake at sunrise

horizon's inspiring glow

sparking too many thoughts.

February 1: Mud season

A warm winter day,

mud gurgling underfoot--

everyone's talking spring.

January 31: Cocktail

Behind the bar

bourbon bottles' amber glow,

soft music of ice cubes.
