Where It Begins
A poem about the first image carried by winter.
Winter begins
with bare branches,
with blue dusk,
and the ordinary hour
leaning closer
to listen.
In the short afternoon,
it taught the house to glow.

to change the room.
No one had to announce it.
The heart understood.

carrying its weather
with a steadier hand.
