Quietly
Way beyond Manhattan
Blizzard conditions sweep the northeast.
As temperatures drop, a cold wind
Emerges from the west.
Nestled under a beautiful blanket
Winter has returned
Yet under all that bravado roads remains soft. Right below the surface it is mud season.
And I am grateful
the buoyancy of Spring is on hold
For my mood has remained in tune
with the stark desolation
the end of winter
sometimes brings
And in the sharpening winds
I hear
Cohen, Vaughan and Warnes alike
sing of you … my dear
