cold January—
the snow sparkled this morning
Sunday pre-church walk
A quiet city
falling snow muffles the hum —
snow capped Boulder Park
sifted like sugar
new snow settles on blue spruce—
frigid New Year’s Day
dog barks miles away
a singing coyote answers —
freezing midnight mist
whiteout conditions
on county road one oh three —
Wyoming commute
queuing travelers
the fog glows red from tail lights,
cold mountain forest
