underneath the snow,
do ants believe the world ends
apocalyptic?

an even blanket of snow covers a park, the trees bear no leaves and hold snow on their branches

Introduce yourself with five animals you have seen in the wild:

Pilot whale*
Puffin
Barred owl
Spawning salmon in fresh water
Luna moth

*I think it was a pilot whale but this was when I was 13 so I don’t remember exactly. It was an incredible moment, whatever kind of whale it was!

a sunday sonnet, it is not iambic pentameter because I am lazy

#poem #poetry #sonnet #laughter #warmth #cold
tables outside sit idly by until the warm months return to thaw out the laughter of children under bright skies to play in the grass and dance all about how long frozen over must we suffer was it years ago or merely weeks yet that our own laughs were able to confer this warmth which makes cheeks turn rosy and wet shall we set the table for its return lay each utensil in its proper place arrange candles bright as beacons to burn and leave the door open poised to embrace triumphant joy and gaiety despite the frigid air and table set in white
