Willows shed pollen
how many aeons before
man was created?

Minus ten degrees.
A blue atmosphere tinges
the distant pine woods.

Partridges scared up
by the dog out of soft snow
under the apples.
I see only chain
round a tree above the ice.
Below, sunken boats.

A Book of the Seasons, by Henry Thoreau
"A book, each page written in its own season,
out-of-doors, in its own locality.”
