"A stormy night" and "Soaking in the tub"
A stormy night:

snow clinging to brown leaves,
the splash of tires,
the sidewalk snowy or just plain wet,
the contrast.
sticking out my tongue until a snowflake lands there, unsuspecting
the tang of melt.
the plop plop plop of stick and release
as my shoes walk through an inch of wet mush.

Soaking in the tub:

Warmth and the scent rosemary sage
like a goose dinner cooking
my itchy feet soaking with my maroon shirts
maroon water everywhere
reading a used paperback
as Nancy Drew exclaims, Fire!
and the maroon tub draining
red, red, red.
