Girl At a Bus Stop

A white dress full
of winter cherries;
hair curled with frost.

A carried box
tied with string
and legends.

Maybe a modelled
sister,or a ghost
from a playground.

You turn to
circumnavigate
in all this road

and wonder this is
as gone as a finger of snow
in April.

The sky is hasty
with a flock of clouds,
broody, hanging -

The next day empty,
just a shape without standing,
colder.
