heading north

blue dawn cracked

a convergence of crows

and their black wings

boisterously announcing

their passage unconcerned

about eavesdroppers

crackle and cackle

demanding attention, waking

everyone this morning

strikes and spares

just to get out

we went to the alley

the one for bowling

used to belong

ages ago to a league

still have our lockers

keeping our shoes

and bowling balls

stored for our brief visits

hours of showers

winter rain

sometimes warm

sometimes cold

winter rain

raising the river banks

raising buds from trees

winter rain

seeping into basements

seeping into dreams

December Daze

At least twice now

(I watched, the ballet)

Across the mild winter yard...

(Long delicate leaping)  

Up the tree, quickly slip

Into the hole...

That once held a branch;

Squirrel scampered

Safely into safety
