Freezing Rain Forest
Freezing rain forest
Encased in ice
Young twigs sagging
Old branches snapping
Squirrels curled in hollows
With tail wrapped noses
Next day sun glitters the world
Sparkling wood against blue sky
Ice rink paths hold footprint molds
Petrified impressions of travellers
Winter fossils of passers by
Soft winds bring glittery cascades
Ends of twigs and icy buds
Tinkling down the canopy
Collecting on the crust below
And dancing across the white
MONDAY…
--- Monday on a Monday at work. Freezing rain for much of the day. I love the garage on mornings like this… just
hop in and go.
TUESDAY…
--- Busy at work.
Last day shift until 2013 for me.
Good… 4:30 wake up is just a nasty thing to do often.
WEDNESDAY/THURSDAY…
--- Night shift.
Enough to say… I’m ready for my vacation. Though Thai food on Thursday is a good thing.
FRIDAY…
--- Back is bad.
Knotted it at work last night and it’s still tight. So lay low for the day.
--- Another shooting in the States… and this one is about as
bad as any have ever been. Just enough
with the guns… enough idiots… enough.
Nobody needs a military style assault rifle. There is no good reason for having one of these
in working condition. Get another hobby
for the enthusiasts. There are just too
many nut jobs among you to trust the good ones with them.
SATURDAY…
--- Do a walk. Back
still tight. Off to the movies with Phil
in the evening. James Bond… but we watch
it in the front row. The back doesn’t
love that, craning the neck for 2.5 hours.
Good movie though.
SUNDAY…
--- Rest up the back as much as I can before going to
softball this afternoon. We lose again…
but I get through it no worse for wear.
--- Weather isn’t great.
Takes about 45 minutes to get home from ball… normally it takes about
25.
--- Back to resting it after the game and watch Survivor
Finale and Dexter tonight.
