Heard You had Snow


The photo: the backyard, April 2007
The poem: 80's vintage. Girlface saw it and said she liked it. It fits today.




Heard You Had Snow

Heard you had snow.

Oh.

Should I sing you a song?

Serenade.

Hi,

how ya’ doing.

Long pause.

Such a long pause

and with life so

simply

complicated

and New York’s so…


far away.

We’re in different worlds

it seems.

I heard you had snow.

I know this place. There's a lot of empty space in snowfall, too.

Beauty in simplicity, like most suffering.

I hear the bell, I remember to breathe.

mmmmmmmmmmmm... maybe winter isn't really so harsh when viewed in HOT July.

Life long friends- absolutely :)

FYI- I'm not answering the phone at home these days because we aren't there... came home to fire engines and disaster on a mid-May 'early summer's night' of getting ice cream cones at the lake. damn. Kelsey lost just about everything, but we were lucky- no lives lost and the damage is fixable. We hope to be answering the phone again in August sometime...
