     Snowflakes appear but don’t flash on the weather monitor. An anemometer would let me know how fast the wind still blows cold. (Something to add to the wish list.) Driveway camera catches random snowflakes, like frantic bugs diving towards light in summer. Snowfall, tomorrow’s forecast to add another one to three inches. Orange like fire on horizon.

     The three search perimeter of fenced-in land seeking scents as if snow could cover what they know is there. Streaks of silver pierce gray sky disappear. Perhaps they have risen higher than my window.

We limit our vision by what we look through.
