Written in response to time on the porch..Sara
Heavy frost, below freezing tempertures
Have denuded some trees
The pale pink running roses frozen sure
No longer the flutter or buzz of bees
Winter winds only thing to endure
Heavy over hanging clouds dampness
A lone buzzard flies
Irony spring buds adorn trees...

So those spring buds are on them already? it mystifies me how my grass is almost green as in summer! And here it's the middle of winter For some reason ,our grass is greener than on other lawns, but in summer, it looks horrendous. (got the EMily Dickinson book. thanks so much, Sara) Luv, Andrea
