LINES FOR SNOW IN DREAMTIME

CROW BEAK

Crow beak snow buried

Brings out Japanese Orange

Lifts off flying east

LINES FOR SNOW IN DREAMTIME

Shedding tears on snow

for the end of snow.

AFTERNOON OF BIG SNOW, in the time of no snow. Deep forest camp. Drying clothes where ever I can hang them. Dry winter camping. Little Buddy, the propane heater in the small shower. Lift windshield wipers from windshield. Climb to roof of Mothership, wipe snow from solar panels. Covered again as soon as I finish. Snowing too hard for burgers. Left-over Mac-n-Cheese. Children building snow fort. Tunneling the snow from the bank above.

Did we ski yesterday? Is that what we did? We skied? Really? And Sammie turned wide out of bounds in one sweeping turn. She crossed that creek beneath her skis? She hit that log? She hit that log and was ok. That was yesterday, too? And we ate those peanut butter and jelly sandwiches at High Camp Lodge. We did all that?
