For making fires

 

old wooden drawers

branches from the garden

perfect for kindling.

Icy

 

Perilous flagstones

outside Bristol cathedral;

stairway to heaven.

Winter seen

 

Winter-stripped branches

offer scant cover for the

marauding magpies.

Winter interrupted

 

These days are special

a cool sun punctures the clouds

offering respite.

Crying

 

Sleet sprinkles my face

the cold flakes melt on warm cheeks;

tears accumulate.

Flowerpot snowdrift

 

Winter wonderland

on a Liliputian scale;

the best Bristol gets.

Hidden benefits

 

Urban silhouette

golden sunrise with pink skies;

out walking the pup.

Cold

 

Hunched over my desk

coat and hat to keep me warm;

gas supply turned off.

January

.

Overwhelming gloom

constant miserable rain

sick and tired of it

Melt

 

Where early frost lay

only damp traces remain

winter sunshine melt.
