Driving Alone in Winter
Driving alone in winter through acres of land
deserted by everything save the snow
trapped in the ruts of the road,
the moon broken by the bare trees,
I remember the days when my brothers and I would fall asleep
in the backseat on the way home.
Tonight, coming home, I remember
the faint light on the dashboard holding my father’s face,
my mother’s soft voice, my brothers asleep,
the moon running among the trees beside the car.
