Tonight's crescent moon
In the western sky caught my
Eye as I drove home.

Words that sound alike
Will always fascinate me.
Here's a pair: Write / wright.

I should just go home.
It's late, nothing to do  here.
But, still, here I am.

Written about 10:15, as I try to find the energy to leave my office, walk to my car, and drive home...

It's still midwinter,
But the nights are soft with spring,
Not harsh, not bitter.

In late afternoon,
The north wind suddenly fierce,
I can see nothing.

The wind off the lake
Brings snow, covering the field,
Keeping me inside.

When I turned east
I saw the full moon hanging
Above the bare trees.

We had fourteen years
And I can still remember
Almost everything

4 February 2012

White beard and white hair
I have suddenly grown old
The wheel of time turns
4 February 2012 
This one is a birthday poem for myself.

I don't think that's true.
But I could try to believe
If only you would.
