March


The blue sky is a liar,
traitorous in its nearness
to zero.
Acting as if
it won't send more white
like a heavenly flour sifter,
creating ice impalers,
rendering every vehicle
monotone.
We wait
in warmth
and look out
at the ice
blue sky.

Oh, I love that "heavenly flour sifter". The image appeals on so many levels.

This is lovely although it made me feel cold. I liked the flour sifter line too.
