Keep clean the road
three or more inches of snow,
and this morning continues.
thick, persistant flakes fall.
steady down. cocstant.

Early to rise
Quite ready this quiet morning.
No body circling the pasture.
ten degrees and it seems colder.
we'll find who's about.

Running
on the edge of tomorrow,
the start of the new year.
line up the days,
clear out the haze.
there's nothing to fear.

Many lights if colors
see the trees filled.
we saw rabbits last night and this morn.
cold and wet now.
and we've two weeks until January.
the days are long.
Darrel what did i say sixty years ago at Christmas break?
That we'd be back and wonder whefre the time went.

Working on
we've watched the weather coast
now december has about run out.

but the season is hardly past.
i suppose it may begin,
any time, with short warning.
we'll see. yes we will.
keep your gloves handy.

on the ground
snow on the ground will melt today.
all away.
we've seen the last coming down.
nothing more have i to say, about snow.
gone, you know ...
for this year.
getting ready now for pizza,
and warm afternoons.
want to pass through the virus phase,
come out the other side.
see friends face to face.
the regular old human race.
go out for breakfast.
take our time rolling through the back-country.
watching the sun-shine,
and the corn grow.

Green again
lost all snow, picked up rain
a solid day of it.
sets another mood.
a return to wood.
should and am be happy for what could.
is late fall again
an early winter twin;
yet warmer, a good season
golden are fields and sky.
dont know why.
peaceful feeling.
u will work again and lineup sides,

White days
bunny tracks cover the yard,
easy to see, not that hard.
scarcely a blemish to be found.
of course rabbits hardly make a sound.

Pompey on television
snow and Rome in very cold weather.
here it cold, not Rome two thousand years ago.
been waiting for winter,
heard today it isn't officially here yet.
how much else you need?
i think we're set.
i'll think on this.

Too tight
tv camera shots are too tight.
duck your head.
smooth your hair out.
lineup, Andy
relax ... be real
take your time.
here's the deal ...
easily said

No threat snow now
over the great lakes
how'd we escape?
a snow bomb.
nearby but not here.
plowed pretty good all around,
again we lucked out.
saw it blast,
accumulation passed.
we got by another time.

What you like
thick grey cloud cover
seals us in neighbor.
here its noon and i realize
nothing has gone by all day.
not a person, auto, dog or squirrel.
rabbits have been gone two months it seems.
time will catch up.
we'll smile again.

things are moving along.

take care as you roll along.
i like crates.

No snow winter cold a bit
it's nice out there
when you're fully bundled
and warm is how i'm wrapped.
crumpled in a package.
good for taking me outside
up and down the drive.
feel alive.
sakes alive

Good light
the combination of seasons,
this and the last.
winter is a hint.
dark is quicker.
rereading A ken follett.
after thirty years it's like the first time.
a fine author for me.

Election is happening finally
been waiting a long, long while.
enough. need it all behind.
have reading and writing to do.
my words have been shallow.
could use a referendum
i even feel i've gained a pound.
look at the stars
or remember the sea at night;
what a hevenly scent.
from land you see the stars,
from the sea you can't see them well.
i think of stars in my dreams.
sparkling stars come aboard
and yes, swimming.
that's good dipping.

October is over now
we finish today then that's it.
costumes, candy for kids.
dark sky and wind puffs.
no music, a lag. a drag on festivities.
indians were the people first to know this land
walked beaches thick with sand.
followed the endless stars
by so many plants and trees.
under sun moon and mars,
this i'n working to put togethero

Warm and Wonderful
late in fall season.
temperatures are hospitable.
very still this morning.
you see many fallen leaves
as the early sun shines through the trees.
my coffee is luke warm but drinkable ...
that's cause i'm slow.
Meri is making scrambled eggs
One for the golden gate
forty years ago or so when we crossed the joyous bridge, our hearts filled with everything that should be. they are, we are, completly.
tai chi, chinese food, boats, happy.
good friends, bay crossings. the best seasons, rain, wind. the scent of water, always.
gladness in our hearts.

Sufficient tints to amaze
brilliance resounds beyond believeability
just when it seems unavailable.
digest the morning scene.
hurl a beam.
peaches and cream.
satisfy your dream.
where there's love in between,
hugs help lots of things.

Horns aplenty
apple cider is nearly ready.
we can heat it on cool nights.
sounds the way we've always done
i don'f say it's regular this time of year.
could seem so.
should we practically expect itv?
i can't for sure say one way or 'nuther.

Dancing today
the full hour
filled with joy.
moving as best we can,
these old folks tapping
the boards,
an hour's worth, 0h boy.
we'll keep old heads together.
tap it out.
an hour, sixtyfull minutes, that's righr.
a good afternoon.
dressed and mentally able.
yes. we are.

Sadly darkened
a spot on my neck hardly noticed
felt this Sunday secondarily.
overlooked though seen before.
the doctor will check me today.
unlike cars that whip by so quickly
i see no more than a blure.
Sunday, October 13, 2024
Ruffled clouds on high
who's that guy
in the sky?
0h my?
why am i so bygone?
a song's worth.
i measured,
that's how much.
how often out of touch.
that such, so much.
ruffled.

Found the noteboard
there plain as day
could be seen what i say
is what is said you know
come what may
then blown away
so write it down
while it's around
have it your way
i'll dot my noteboard.

Huddle by the tree bushes
we've sun a lot today you see.
you know the feeling.
a bright run worth every ray.
warms like an arm on your shoulder.
when all is quiet
this is our kind of day.
