Synchronicity

Flower pot on porch
Now looks like an ice cream cone
Surrounded by snow.










A few flakes still fall
Fluttering through the dim air;
Beginning or end?

A vast world of white--
Snow shovels, bowed tree branches
And children's foot prints.








Fluttering by stream
Chubby birds hunt for food
With flaps and shivers.

A slight wind whistles
Shaking snow flakes off fir trees--
Whirling dots of white.

Giant mound of snow
Against a sign that says "Banks"--
Synchronicity.

On abandoned shack
New boards to keep the ghosts out.
(Don't think it will work).












With its mouth open
Milkweed husk faces the sky:
Winter silhouette.
