We Are Here

Here to be here soul-filled sunlight shining through branches warming fresh fall snow melting lazily dropping quick and icy plunking against decaying growth ice and twigs crack under foot mulch pungent, as steam rises dripping promise on the day

breath shallow clouds form waiting for the implosion exploding then back to the day this day days before the dreams our hearts not yet ready for all the storms we are going to weather before the spring Here I’ve been here before you’ve been here too did we dream it or is it in all of us this place where the sun shines through to the brisk fall morning and the leftover leaves poke up to say hello to the new snow woods. u
