In California

  Snow 


Snow rises like lather
at the edge of the glassy
blacktop.  It lies like lace
on the cedar scales.  Austere,
replete, more delicate than I
would have imagined
is the chain-link gate
with its lattice-work of snow.
It catches me and I almost
stop as I pass the laden broom
and open the office door.
