Snow Day

Falling like feathers
All the day long
Blown in on north wind

From the upstairs window
The roofs of adjacent houses
Resemble sloping fields

The pool has disappeared
The slide drops to naught
Save a slick tight white

The dog stands at the door
Mournful and bored
Metaphorical leash in mouth
