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

Tiny horizons
None are forgotten, all traced
By eyeless snow storm

Haiku Poet

Turn toward a door
Miss clump of wet snow
Slipping off lamp post

Mount Challenger

Cloud drapes wide shoulders,
White scarf blown far back
In the face of Crestone Peak

Winter Soccer

Dreaming of being a snowman
A soccer ball draws a line
Where it rolls

Backing Out

Miniature mountain range of snow
parallel to ledge of carport roof
the morning’s speed bump

last night’s snow flakes
made basket after basket
