It went from “cold” to “damn cold” overnight and when I got up this morning it was -12F here in South St. Paul. The “high” today is supposed to brush 0, which reminded me of this poem by George Bilgere:
Zero
First it was five above, then two,
then one morning just plain zero.
There was a strange thrill in saying it.
It’s zero,
I said when you got up.
I was pouring your coffee
and suddenly the whole house made sense:
the roof, the walls, the little heat registers
rattling on the floor. Even the mortgage. Zero,
you said, still in your robe.
And you walked to the window and looked out
at the blanket of snow on the garden
where last summer you planted carrots
and radishes, sweet peas and onions,
and a tiny rainforest of tomatoes
in the hot delirium of June.
Yes, I said, with a certain grim finality,
staring at the white cap of snow on the barbecue grill
I’d neglected to put in the garage for winter.
And the radio says it could go lower.
I like that robe, it’s white and shimmery,
and has a habit of falling open
unless you tie it just right.
This wasn’t the barbarians at the gate.
It wasn’t Carthage in flames, or even
the Donner Party. But it was zero, by God,
and the robe fell open.
clear skies, and mid to high 70’s here. supposed to stay that way for a week.
i’m sorry.
Ok, I have NEVER read poetry to my husband until tonight.
That poem is sheer AWESOME. And that last line, perfection. It was zero, by god…and the robe fell open!
I’m glad you liked it, Hayden – a vicarious taste of Minnesota for the folks in Raleigh!
