I find myself

the blue blizzard

The  Blue Blizzard

wolf moon
how tiny snowmen
save the world

snow and more snow
new wrinkles around
my eyes 

frost nights
your smile doesn't reach
your eyes

snow-covered sails
the line you never cross
with me

Happy 250th Birthday

Happy 250th Birthday 

Jane Austen year

still dealing with things

I wrote about

morning mist 

your Mr. Darcy's smile

finally found me 

Winchester Cathedral

a short look on her grave

the bus doesn't wait

full moon at Hampshire

the irreparable crack
in my heart

Netherfield

the echo of my sister laughing

finds me

June beetle's humming

June beetle's humming

sun-freckles your strawberry kiss round and round 

strawberry moon

right into my illusions

an owl's call

thimble dreams
my wounded soul
becomes a rose petal

strawberries and more strawberries
my tongue remembers you

Christmas 
suddenly I remember to
the carol's last verse


mulled wine
the unknow old woman
in the mirror
has my eyes 

heavy snowfall
we use our footsteps
coming home
