28 days into February

sun shines a window
through the cloud
snowflakes leave slowly
as silently as they came

I swamped by darkness
where trees reach to nothingness-
the rising moon smiles

glorious sunset
bony fingers reach through fire-

16 days into February

health problems depress
pain acceptance difficult
it’s a long tunnel
.
these things are manageable
it’s just one step at a time

15 days into February

this way and that way
reaching for the light and shine
the holly in the carpark
this way and that way
blown with dirt by traffic draught
the holly by the roadside
.
this way and that way
we work and rush and worry
try to be industrious
this way and that way
minds racing on in turmoil
then we find the light and shine
.

14 days into February

frustrated
by
fuss pot people
.
today’s been
long
and tedious
.
back home now
things
become clearer

12 days into February

when the leaves come back
I will not see the lichen-
doors open and close
