Haiku for winter


snow day
long pauses between chores
stretching the quiet

third day of snow
retelling Grandpa’s stories
of his arrival

It is hard to complain about the snow when it is so beautiful. We had the same three snow days as you. I love both of your poems. How could a person help from standing by the window, watching the snow fall? And, a snow day does bring to mind "back when" stories.
