Sorry crow -
    I must have strayed
         too close to something unseen.

Signs of snow play
        stripe the snowy inclines -
Quiet Monday morning.

Oak leaves balance
   on sharp, ice crusted snow
       beneath the pines' shadows.

Abandoned chain hangs from a railing -
leaking the night's cold
in a weak sun.

sunny day's calligraphy -
           pine needles sink
           in slowly melting snow

Predawn winter moon
glowing on new snow.
   A deer walks down silent street.
