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
