deep under snow
the road turns

in the irrigation ditch

in the tractor ruts

freeing itself
of itself

the heron’s dive
deepens the cold

darkness hardens
to a crow

the sky trickling
from a tide pool

quieter now
than before it came

slow afternoon
the foal’s nostrils
widen in the breeze

magnolia scent…
sunlight in the hairs
along my son’s ear

night bus
a handprint fills
with moonlight
