Her nest was close to her left side

There’s a possum who appears here at odd times, often walking up the path to the house in the middle of the day like a little ghost with a long tail and a blank expression on his face. He likes to slip behind the woodpile, but sometimes he gets so close to the window where I am standing with a glass in my hand that I start to review my sins, systematically going from one commandment to the next. What is it about him that causes me to begin an examination of conscience, calling to mind my failings in this time of reflection? It could just be the twitching of the tail and that white face, but his slow priestly pace also makes a contribution, as do the tiny paws, more like hands, really, with opposable thumbs able to carry a nut or dig a hole in the earth or lift a chalice above his head or even deliver a document, I am thinking as he nears the back door, not merely a subpoena but an order of excommunication with my name and a date written in fine Italian ink and signed with a flourish of the papal sash. ~ Billy Collins

In my coat I sit At the window sill Wintering with snow That did not melt It fell long ago At night, by stealth I was where I am When the snow began ~Samuel Menashe

Flying before Corona, when the air liners still gave us pea nuts and a few ounces of coke! :o)

Peace lies over All the peaks. In all the trees You sense Hardly a breath; The little forest birds fall silent Wait, and soon You too will rest. ~ Gothe
