NaHaiWriMo - day nineteen

19.
slowly the snow melts
a momentary reprieve 
still there are no buds

NaHaiWriMo - day seventeen and eighteen

17.
blinded by the sun
the world becomes shadow
everything slows

18.
through the window
i catch the blur of birds’ wings
why am i so tired?

NaHaiWriMo - day 16

16.

it’s twenty below
we sit around the campfire 
our hearts warm and full 

NaHaiWriMo - day fourteen and fifteen

14.

wind cuts through clothes
my beard is coated with ice
the birds are silent 

15.

we walk along the path
through the thicket an open field
suffused with sunlight 

NaHaiWriMo - day thirteen

13.

outside my window 
a chorus of birdsong erupts
i go back to sleep
