Avalanche
A slither hither
A slither thither
Little respect did I choose to give her
Such slopes did my salopettes befit
Spirit lifted by my off-piste flit
The way gravity pulled on down on me
An intestinal wake I raked by ski
A rumble there
A tumble here
Entombed in her vengeful lair
The Mountain, she served her writ
Spirit drifted from my frozen wit
The way gravity pulled down on me
A tomb no one shall ever see

Poetry: Snowed in
by Carol Gioia
Weather reports predict
a blizzard coming our way,
closing highways and byways,
suspending movement all day.
Angry laments
It dumps and clumps and freezes rumps
This cold stuff falling from the sky
Shoveling is every grownup's job
And no pay from
Having never lived, in a cold and wintry place.
The newlyweds were unaware, of what they both would face.
A snowy
White fields as far as the eyes can see
Piled high against the walls
Covering the garden and the path
There is no going out
Snowed in again today
Trapped in a white cocoon
Thinking of games to play
While stuck in my room
Waiting for the weather
