end of day

~

new-feathered, the valley

a black and white wing

stretches from horizon

the beat encloses

clouds and winter sky

 

field under snow, the back

of a settling dove

a lone skier presses

towards shelter, and

amber streak of sky

    • Hi Robin. When I wrote this we were driving on a part of the road where I could see the horizon and the whole forested valley stretched below. Thanks! Jane
