newtown

coming to know
     the varied land
          like the nose of a puma

Storm Walk

Near midnight
  stormwinds arrive

Roaring in close pines
      by the house

I couldn't resist
Flashlight in hand 
       go out walking-

Near the empty highway
  in the inky blackness
    the swirling snowclouds part-

Orion & Pleiades!
