snow
up to my knees in childhood
numb fingers across a snotty nose
running to the toboggan run
slipping on thoughts
closing in on the day’s ruin
snow
in the lamplight’s orange glow
turning to yellow laughter wrapping
pals in scarfs and short trousers
long socks and chilblain-toed fires
waiting on the exhaustion of this day of
snow
