Traffic report (for a snowy day)

All night the radio fuzzed
Winter storms.
So when you woke,
Treefingers shivered
From treetops
Dipped in porcelain sky--
Proof of an airy
Heft.

Schools in the tri-county area
Closed.
Metro service
Delayed.
Expecting extended commutes
With no place to go
You stood expecting
The tree’s
Snap.
