Mirrors in Whiteness
Tufts of brown grass
Pop up from the white snow field;
Light plays on the road.
Near the broken barn
Bundles of old clothes is waiting;
Early spring cleaning.
Mirrors in whiteness--
Dark patches of melting snow;
Puddles in the woods.
Quickly she passed,
Disappearing down the road
Like a morning ghost.
Car passes slowly;
Doctor looks at me strangely:
"What is he writing?"
A strange pile of rocks
Clustered tightly on the hill
As if by design.
Jogger round the bend
Youthful with vitality;
Then she disappears.
Huffing and puffing
Fat oil truck climbs the steep hill
With ancient stored heat.
