Nature

On a winter walk: LAPC

On a winter walk
down my block
A dusting of snow
shows which way to go

Fences of wood, wire, and stone
divide us, and leave us all alone

Daggers and spikes form
along edges once warm

An ancient one awakens


speaking of directions not taken

On a winter walk
down my block
A warm sunrise glow
shows which way to go
