earth note 783


before they are gone forever
be sure and walk across
a cobblestone street
before the ice melts
that feeling that you don't
have control with what's
under your feet
one slip and the whole world
might slip away

a day past valentine's day
can bring crazy thought trains
daydreaming on a highway
random road signs
the trees are becoming ice sculptures
before turning to water
the hilltops might go first
if the sun can be coaxed
to see the light
