Old Vinyl

Warped and glazed with dust
Crackling like burning brush.
fragile sounds spill out.

Truck moves up the street
Angling around a bend
vanishing from sight.

CREATIVITY

Begins with past thoughts
adds rare troves of memories
ends with soul results.

EARTH

Black, brown, red colours
making up composition
that takes many years
to create your life giving
qualities that breed new green
plants who rely on your food.

others, throwing snow balls
rejoicing your flakes!

Sorry, Ted. I just finished snow raking the roof for the second time and my age is showing. I love my snow rake because I don't have to get up on the roof, but it's hard work with heavy, wet snow.

Snow

Contradictory
Powdery, wet or icy
Joyful or deadly
First white then a dirty brown
A mystery of nature.

Late Winter

Droplets quickly fall
assaulted by the sun's rays
Snow has met it's match.

New England Weather

Nor'easter has come
Twisting like a run over snake
Cold fangs sinking in.

Ran over a Rattler once out West. Man, he was pi**ed off! Attacked the tire of the 1/2 ton.

Weird how the past never leaves ya.

RATTLER

Coiled lethal reptile
warning all close enough to
fear sharp fangs of death.
