i wake and fumble
frantically to shut off
the beeping alarm
of the snowplow backing up
outside my bedroom window

Sometimes the simplest things can warm our hearts, even on the coldest of days

lines in heaven
come in hues
of pastel pinks
and baby blues,
but here on earth
the lines unroll
black as the pit
from pole to pole

the female
pheasant has plumage
resplendent,
but males have
marvelous murals of art–
to capture her heart!

i love
new notebooks
with all those creamy
white virgin
pages
all
strung with
thin blue lines
on which to hang my
freshly-washed
words
and
i like
to imagine
what great stories
could hang out
here
