Backyard Slopes
Fearless my youngest
Son refuses tasks
Of Sisyphus
Ascends simple hills
Descends on skis
Risks slips
To soar and switch
180 degrees
Masters steep
Snow slopes
He assembles
Himself
2019
Mount Challenger
Cloud drapes wide shoulders,
White scarf blown far back
In the face of Crestone Peak
2019
Backing Out
Miniature mountain range of snow
parallel to ledge of carport roof
the morning’s speed bump
2019
Middle School Pressure
Girl barometers
Passing glances like cruel notes
Predict the snow storm
2019
