the table has ice
crystals all over the surface
and one by one they turn
to wet spots soon dried by
the creeping sun coming
overhead from behind the trees
and warms everything
enough to be a peaceful
wind free winter day
hoping to end the day
with the same clear skies
and the same stars
that met me in the back yard
earlier before dawn
everything had a frosty
coating couldn’t find a spot
to sit just wandered around
the back yard
the only light was the moon
and stars...
