Poem: “Winter is a Dragon Day”

I have loved the several recent days of deep bright blue that is a sky color you never see in a hazy summer, but I have a certain affection for the fierce slate days as well.

Winter is a Dragon Day
By Meg Winikates

Gray clouds have teeth;
their bite bloods my cheeks
and my breath boils.
With every gust I prove I am alive.

To Drive the Cold Winter Away: Happy Solstice!

On The Solstice
by Meg Winikates

While the green sleeps
and the river dreams
and the bear is tucked under the hill,
Hope for new life slowly creeps
on the day the sun stands still.

By me, winter 2011

May you have a holiday season full of warmth and well-being, and best wishes for the new year!
