winter’s first silver 
sea burnished brilliance 
palisades blown down 
kids in a Kia tool by
laughing like nothing’s changed.

And for music this morning, here’s Cecilia Bartoli singing Mozart Arias. (Youtubers) I was listening to this as the wind howled and banged around the house and after a while the weather calmed right down. Hope it works for you too.
