March and April are tough months (for me) in the Colorado Rockies. One day you think, Spring is here! And the next it will snow. Yesterday it was 65 and deliciously warm. Today I was grumpy all day as winter returned with snow all day and temps in the 30's. Peaks and valleys. In nature, in life. Since the first day of Spring is in a week, but I know I won't taste it fully until May, here are my winter musings. I actually wrote these in December.
Summer seems like a
dream that you can scarce recall
frozen by the snow
Lawn chairs hibernate
and look forlorn under their
cold, white bed covers
Manufactured Heat
stirs, clanks, revs, hums its warm song
into your winter.
Fondly recalling
the heat and sun, respecting
the cold and the dark.
