Time to sleep. I hope
That tonight sleep comes quickly,
And stays 'til morning.

22 December 2016

The solstice is here.
But I watch the sunset and
Wait for the sunrise.

(Taken about 5:30 PM today)

Looking around, I
See my books, my silent friends,
My hiding places.

This is what you get
When you see beyond the stone
To what lies within.

(A pair of hands, by Rodin.
In the Rodin Museum. 2007)

Winter's first real snow,
Huge, soft flakes drifting, floating,
Finally landing.

13 December 2016

The pond frozen over,
Snow hides the ice, a white sheet
Amid still-green grass.

10 December 2016

Outside my window,
Snowflakes swirling in the wind
And disappearing.
