The Goose Tree - Moyra Donaldson
A Winter Gift
How much further you can see
when the trees are bare,
the countryside open to the bones
of itself, stark and absolute,
stripped to essentials.
The first time you feel it,
contentment is a strange
sensation: what is this
settling on me?
you wonder.
It is the gift of snow,
drifting, deep.
To the Current Occupants of My Parents’ House
I need no key, no invitation; whether
you are in or out, I come and go
as I please and even in the dark
I intimately know my way
from room to room, with all
the secret spaces in between,
every creak of door or stairs,
every layer of paint and tears.
I look in the bathroom mirror,
often lie down on my own
