Against the Pale Sun








Just patches of snow;
Just pale green grass underneath;
Just the freezing cold.

























Gray and white merging
Into a winter pastiche;
No sunshine breaks through.

















Munching contented
Collette turns, gives me a look
Then back to munching.














Now the solar sign
Is buried in the snow bank
Covered with gray snow.


















Stark trampoline stands,
Its feet covered with old snow;
Near empty lawn chairs.
















On verge of falling:
Dead tree held by its neighbor
Suspended in air.














Kindred reflections
In the icy roadside pond--
One opaque and one clear.
















Against the pale sun
Silhouetted tree stands out
In gray morning light.
