Poems of deep attention to the ordinary

First Snow

Prague wakes up snuggled
under a cashmere blanket
the night clouds have thrown.

It lifts up
the diffused light
back to the sky —
a milky haze
over the Dancing House,
Portheimka Park,
and the green spires
on the red Church
of Saint Wenceslaus nearby.

It muffles the Monday morning
rumble of trams at Anděl,
inviting all dogs
to roll over
and play alive
under the white-edged lindens.
