the snowman
and the wino --
each with a new hat

or:

the wino's new hat --
Snowman keeps
a cool head

a foot of snow
a month too soon
candles for nightlights

the only snowman
on our block --
that old geezer keeps grinning

a hatless scarecrow --
big smile on
Mr. Snowman

snowmelt
turns to black ice --
she has another headache

door locks
frozen again --
de-icer in the glovebox

after the blizzard --
the pretty young neighbor
digs out my car

the Plow God makes
a mountain of snow -
no riverview today

snow buries
the basement window --
Spring Scent from the laundry vent

ten feet of snow:
a dark bay window
on a sunny day

Ghosts of Valentines past:

Valentine's Day --
the new sign says
"Thin Ice"

it's sealed --
the Valentine card
she never sent

Feb. 14
mailbox stuffed with cards
-- from relatives

a Valentine
for the apostate --
novena card from Mom

rusty blades --
she skates backwards
so we can chat

III: 010

bing-crosby snowflakes
in the window
greatgrandma rocks and grins
