This morning at 2,
while a wet snow
formed heavy burdens
and the things I cannot digest
boiled bile to a froth,
I awoke
choking
words.
At the day then, the smaller tasks —
always most productive —
seemed best acceptance:
wash the dishes,
feed the cat,
water the plants.
A domestic meditation
designed to sooth while
outside, that snow
threatened to break things.
And so small me
in a small effort
(it felt)
changed what I could —
donned coat and boots
and in the quiet dark
brushed snow from branches
of a dogwood set to bloom.
If not wisdom, I suppose,
one at least
can hope for flowers.
