seven below zero
standing still, breathing:
icy air stabs at the lungs,
freezing nostril hairs.

must be toll house
wafting through the house,
warm kitchen filled with the smell
of fresh-baked cookies.

morning on the hill
valley mists lifting,
the sun warming a good day
to burn a chicken

casper butte
on the mountaintop,
a warm breeze intermingling
scents of pine and sage.

summer haze
smell of hot asphalt,
street and skyline shimmer in
the translucent heat.

wet smells
ashes, wool, sawdust,
newspaper, freshly mown grass,
leather, leaves, and dog.

grills ignited
backyard odors waft,
neighborhod grills are burning
last year's grease drippings.
