Yesterday's Snow

 

Dull, gray light

seeps from the morning fog.

Dark trunks of oak

lift their thick columns

into a flat, pewter sky.


Long branches have shed

yesterday's snow.


Dripping to the ground,

exposing soggy brown leaves.

Small pockets of ground snow

are pocked by falling drips.

Small silver drops

cling to tapered twigs.


As the end December approaches,

the front edge of winter

waits to begin 

its long, stubborn stay.
