light snow at 32 degrees
at 34, snow-rain that then freezes
to ice what has already fallen onto
our hill, a paved logging road
with impossible slopes even 4-wheel
drive and chains find challenging
so i’ve been writing and reading
wrapped up in fluffed blankets
huddled in my home living on
canned goods and fruit stocked
up a week ago at meteorologists’
warnings of severe winter storms
a new, limited lifestyle that calls
from within me a rare perspective
of proper humility in the grip
of Nature as she wills
