Snow 

 

It is snowing again

and I’ve had words stuck just below the hyoid

all night.

 

We were so proud, weren’t we.

We believed there was no weather we weren’t suited to

summer’s open shirts and windows

or rainy days spent worrying

only if the rain would last

to put us both to sleep.

 

Tonight there is no sound to lull me bye.

The white noise of snow.

Snow belongs on film, rain on radio.
