Snow three feet thick
With a narrow footpath leading from house to workshop
A cherry red stove amidst the workbenches and toolboxes
Warming the very snowbound soul
Hoisted upon the bench
A freshly painted black frame sits clamped in blocks
A shiny new piece of hardware installed here and there
Parts neatly arranged around it awaiting a mechanic's hands
A deep black fuel tank on the corner table reflecting the December calendar on the wall in a funhouse reflection
Time enough before spring
