Years Reflected

Today I’m just a click
away from nothingness
on internet posts.

The limbs on the tree
next door are still,
and it’s just 2 degrees
outside.

Warm air whooshes
up from the register
and a sparrow sings

as I remember
my life as
miles covered
along highways and roads
and faces seen.

And this love
many years ago
comes back again
an incarnate dream.

This snow outside
is soft and pure
as I wait to step outside-

I still see her face.
