Keeping Itself Cold







 Package on the porch
Left by UPS Santa;
Nice way to start day.


Blinding yellow light
Shining between the pine trees
Fills up the kitchen.


 Today, field is bright;
Small pine tree casts large shadow;
Mirror stream trickles.


 Shadows everywhere
Paying homage to the sun;
No cloud in the sky.

 

Delicate peeled bark
Falling away from the tree
Yet still holding on.


Cradled by dead leaves
Small block of snow near the road,
Keeping itself cold.


Two different shoes lie;
The mystery is now solved:
Furry Belle left them.


Old election sign
Stuck in back of the truck:
"Vote For Pete"--who's he?
