"Sonoma County Winter"––poem by Karl Frederick
Sonoma County Winter
Onward through this wonderfully dreary day
Gray clouds, low and wind-driven
speak of things I cannot name.
Rain drips through bare limbs
into the greening earth, and
I am amazed to be cold, wet, and
so vibrantly alive.
Let December know
its cold reach has fallen short.
Inside, inside . . . spring!
- Karl Frederick
