Teleological

Science
really sticks to the baser questions
about how the world works
sure it tells us much
and teaches more
but it will always fail
to tell us why...

Lego Time

The banging has stopped
the children have gone to bed
now it's time
adult time
we have a lego viking castke to finish
and kids just get in the way.

Urban Touring

Happy day!
the snows have come
I couldn't wait till finals done
and so I played to school and back
and "how" you ask did I have fun?
Let's say I test with ski boots on!

Sparkles

Turns out
when it drops below zero
you see little sparkles
all around.

Some might say
that it is the water from the air
freezing
and flitting about.

Turns out
it can also be
your contacts
freezing to your eye.

Final

Come inside
you freezing notes
tidbits of info
cold
all scattered
where the winds of confusion blow.

Come where it's warm
inside my head
where you can snuggle
and I can see
what you all look like
together.

White as Snow

I wake
the earth is white
a pure solemness
falling in tiny flakes
clean.

But then I remember
after the melt in Colorado
when we would find
all our dirty toys
and secrets
out on the front yard
for all to see.

Snow doesn't purify
it just covers up.

California Dreams

She stopped
like a bug in molasses
moving
but not forward
"What is it?"
"This is my first time seeing snowfall"
California dreams
Don't hold a candle
to powder.
