Without Ease

We are suffering through blustery winds right now. Some giving and taking going on between winter and spring. I’m staying out of their way as I listen and watch as they work it out.

achy groans..

marauding winds whip

Scribbles

under the awning
watching swirly snow scribble
on this gray winter day,
a gathering of sparrows
