Snowy Night, Bristol, England — Matthew Hughes
Thank you Matthew, for your inspiration today.
Against the flow
Who was the intrepid one
who dared to walk alone,
not cycle through soft
white perfectly quiet?
And why veer to the left
then resume the line,
What question bothered
the seemingly certain mind?
No dog evidenced in snow
following his nose, appeared
to be the cause for divergence.
Perhaps pure COVID rebellion,
the need to break out of lines
of lightbulbs marching, open
closed doors – make the fenced
houses roadside come alive again.
