tall boy in loose jeans
I look twice; it's not him
my son is married

a Rorschach blot of pee
left by the dog

Snowy feline
curled up against the cold
marshmallow cat

dark, ancient forest
endless, snow covered branches
as I drive to work

fluttering shadow
on the snow-covered driveway
American flag
sweet, creamy goodness
of a proper tea
poured in the morning darkness

Full of vegetables and beans
Post Christmas diet

balancing in too-tall shoes
Are we grown up yet?

forgotten glass jar 
left outside, brewing at night
moon tea

sits on a matching saucer

outside my bedroom window
the soft light of the silvery moon
holds all my secrets

holiday weekend
in an old historic town
tourist season here
dedicated bird
diligently builds her nest
poops on my window
