the squeak of snow

underfoot

woodchucks asleep

Ducktrap River

deer tracks in snow lead me

to open water

26 February 2022 (all day snow)

all day snow

my neighbor’s window lit up

by a pride flag

one year already . . .

flowers left in falling snow

for the boy lost

24 February 2022 (on hold)

on hold

for customer service . . .

first leaf buds

23 February 2022 (Chickadees)

paired chickadees

the intermittent whispers

of melting bog ice

22 February 2022 (vulture)

first vulture of spring . . .

imagining the past lives

of this old pine

Near the summit of Mount Battie, Camden Hills State Park, 2.21.22

20 February 2022 (half-asleep)

half-asleep

watching more snow fall

mid-life birthday

19 February 2022 (tree farm)

half-grown tree farm

a rusting horse trailer

at field’s edge

a long letter

from the new widow
