Moving Toward Spring
We can feel Spring drawing near.
They woke to several inches of snow up in Anchorage today. We had light snow a few days ago and as I stand on our back deck, the hard-frozen remnants of our snow pack stretch out over our yard. The deck is bare and the wooden planks are warm from the sun. Max basks in the afternoon sunshine.
But when I close my eyes, I can feel the cold reaching out from the grayish, silent ice that surrounds me, like the memory of winter.
