Hemlock and Cedar

 THIN sheets of blue smoke among white slabs … near the shingle mill … winter morning.

Falling of a dry leaf might be heard … circular steel tears through a log.

Slope of woodland … brown … soft … tinge of blue such as pansy eyes.

Farther, field fires … funnel of yellow smoke … spellings of other yellow in corn stubble.

Bobsled on a down-hill road … February snow mud … horses steaming … Oscar the driver sings ragtime under a spot of red seen a mile … the red wool yarn of Oscar’s stocking cap is seen from the shingle mill to the ridge of hemlock and cedar.
