Weather forecast

Snow from last night has melted. More will come tonight, and then days of temperatures below freezing. Driving will continue to be treacherous. Air quality, excellent. Crows, restless and watchful. I don’t know where to go from here. So much has changed, I try to find my bearings. 

How can I serve? How to direct dwindling energy and ever-diminishing resources? What am I doing?

Head adrift in questions, I step out and say Ah! Winter trees. White outlines. This much is true, this blinding wonder. I'll steer by the trees. The woman ahead of me walks with a steady gait. I’ll follow her for a while.
