2:45 a.m.
In the wee hours of the morning,
The world is quiet with only
The rumble and beep of the plow
And the scrape of my shovel against the pavement
And an occasional whump of snow
As it hit the growing snow pile
With just enough force to make a dent
As well as add a bit more heft to
The small mountain of snow
And I glance at the sky, the snow has stopped
Stars begin to appear
And the last few wisps of cloud
Race past the full moon, heading
Quickly out to sea
To add their snowy benediction to the waves


Beautiful. Your muse keeps very late hours.
