19 December 2025 (reading)

reading the end first rain washes away the snow

18 December 2025 (bitter wind)

bitter wind —

a line of fox tracks

trapped in lake ice

17 December 2025 (almost winter)

almost winter —

two red squirrels headlong

down a hemlock

16 December 2025 (marbled sky)

marbled sky

the snow between gravestones

etched with turkey tracks

15 December 2025 (winter dusk)

winter dusk

following a crow

following the highway

14 December 2025 (morning flurries)

morning flurries

the snowy owl returns

to the jetty

13 December 2025 (piping the icing)

piping the icing

on the last batch of cookies —

Geminids

12 December 2025 (afternoon flurries)

afternoon flurries

air traffic backed up

at the bird feeder

11 December 2025 (polar vortex)

polar vortex

the inflatable Santa’s

open arms

10 December 2025 (frost flowers)

frost flowers what if I had said yes

9 December 2025 (winter light)

winter light

weaving a basket

with daylily leaves
