(An Elfje series)
White
snow falls.
Is there enough
to build a snowman?
No.
Icy
Arctic blast,
snow, sleet; biting
rain washes snow away.
Gone.
Wind
roars through
the rigging; an
angry beast out for
blood.
In
the Marina,
on board the boat,
keeping warm. No sailing
today.

An Elfje Tale: In the Window
blood,
mission ghosts –
haven’t any they are
ragged images with misty
arms
blink
when it
rains at the
cape there on the
hill
simple
candle flames
burn for blind
children, lost going to
church

Blood
drying, red-
brown, curled edges
clinging to bone bare
branches.
