Subzero Morning

snow squeaks underfoot
rainbow sundogs stand alert
sheltering the sun

Snow Likely

winter storm warning
eyes turn to the somber sky
time to hunker down

My Dear Valentine

love like soft green leaves
abundant and fresh in spring
glowing in your gaze

Sad Puppy

oh, lampshade collar
keeps me from licking my wounds
and now I can't see

Broke Down

traveling swiftly
sudden lurch, loss of power
roadside is peaceful
