warm and safe enough

you show off your first petals

scent the fresh spring air

Steel Path

we walk the steel path

oily rock and broken wood

early this spring day

In the driveway getting the Sunday paper

a woman walking
early alone, her sadness
a wet mutt trails her

like a black kite thru grey skies
I smile, she does not

a woman walking
wafting her black mood past me
I wave; she looks down

Outlaw holly stand

Enemy of arborists

Awaits the axe man

thick leaves clot the lake

rubbery green and yellow

young buds praise the sun

Out from cold waters

Into the rare Spring sunshine
