Observations from the Garden

first day of december

Posted on December 1, 2014 by The Course of Our Seasons

Tattered-
clouds unravel
threads of sky, loose
and torn.
Chattering –
sleet bounces across the tin roof-
tears of ice
on my face.
Shattered –
the sleet colored sky
falls to earth-
gray on gray on gray.

I felt like I was right there with you. In other words, it did what it was supposed to do!
