dark clouds, hold deep grey
floating night in sky’s day
locust air looms, roams
above trees, streets, and hills
scattered gusts
break umbrellas below
tugging against March
rain wins, turns skin
to water again
Tag: Winter
Hockey
frozen water holds the weight of winter
reflecting moon, scarred by skates
frenetic lines, puck glides without
a mark made
hard circular rubber, a speck
existing, cold on the surface
then slapped by wooden fiberglass
quick journeys forward and back
drops of sweat
melt the ice
