Vexed cat meows at
small bird outside the window.
“Be afraid!” cat says.

Purring cat wakes me
wanting pets and cuddles now.
But it’s early cat.

Clever crows watching,
besetting the beach for food.
Waiting to swoop down.

Grey cloudy day, dull
and dreary, dragging moods down.
Where does the sun hide?

Pouring rain washing
away snow, salt, grime, winter.
Watering the spring.

Finally the sun
has returned, warming our chills.
Cheering our low moods.

Shuddering windows,
creaking house under wind storm.
Waiting for reprieve.

Melting snow dripping
outside the window, dropping.
Revealing spring bulbs.

Branches heavy with
snow so white and pure, freezing.
Burying young shoots.

Tender green shoots push
through the snow covered ground, up.
Promising springtime.

Sun glints off of snow
fresh fallen, white, melting slow.
Winter is leaving.

Surfacing from deep
sleep, dreams colourful, lifelike.
Glad to see the sun.

Morning sunlight makes
me squint, smile, peaceful, happy.
High optimism.

Birds chirping in the
trees, busy with life, springtime.
Ready for nesting.

Pale light basking Oak
Bay and tender spring plants grow.
Primroses start blooms.

Reluctant to wake
from my colourful dream world.
The same grey clouds, rain.

Another grey day
marching in dull succession.
Will the spring come soon?

Skies heavy with rain,
grey, dark, foreboding, windy.
Should I venture out?

Wednesday, January 04, 2012

Grey skies pooling rain
all around the house, car, me.
Waiting for the sun.
