snuggled into a warm cozy bed
weather wakes this sleepyhead
with a blustery December night
white clouds reflecting city light
cold drops fall fast and furious
a clattering house, mysterious
midwinter storms in and wails
frigid rain and whipping gales
weather
December windows open
cold winter night wind
warms my soul but chills my bones
spring sleeps in the earth
Questions of the Sky

—Anonymous, The Queries Magazine, 1890
June — boom!
In Phoenix, summer is a heat bomb that explodes in late June.
Coldhearted
Hail is angry rain.
Breathlessly beautiful
Autumn breathes in golden sunshine and breathes out a frosty chill.
Between
overcast spring day
musing under olive tree
on top of the world
Aegrotum sanare
Autumn is the antidote to stifling summer.
Startup
Spring stirs under silent snow.
Merry March
such a happy beautiful morning
the doves aren’t even mourning
