Snow on the Curb

Bright white snow comes down, is mowed aside,
from glass cases we pass by unconcerned,
as exhaust shifts from gaseous to solid
like visions written or Nature confides.
A gray and black snow has covered the curb
and we, curtains of earth, remain stolid.

Basic

these are branches
from the base of the tree
to stump and roots
