Winter Dreams
1-
Heavy Spring snow on lilac branches.
Two gone so far.
2-
Mutability:
Almost hot Winter day.
Snow melt rivers.
A week later:
two more feet of snow.
3-
Late night sound of freight trains
moving through town.
Where they are sounds
change directions.
Depending upon the wind.
4-
Homage to Li Po:
Drinking wine.
The way you loved me,
a red stain on white carpet.
5-
Mandelstam: Reading by candle light.
Creased pages. Poems in two languages.
The blurred edges of his life, fading.
6-
Snow laden trees. Strong image poems;
Plath’s last dreams.
