Chopin as the sun rises
turning north again
oatmeal with blueberries
honey and hot tea
painting
one perfect pear and
the garden, winter-banked
in dazzling snow
knowing you
are in this world

Sharon Auberle is an author and photographer. She loves water and winter, the subjects of many of her poems, and is happy to be back in the land of her roots, the Midwest, after nearly twenty years in the drought-stricken Southwest. Sharon has recently ventured into the world of recorded word, via her new CD, Something After Burning, which features poems from her forthcoming book by the same name, with music backup from some the finest musicians in Door County, Wisconsin. The CD is available for $10 plus $3.50 S. & H., from the author at P.O. Box 701, Sister Bay, Wisconsin 54234. When not writing or out in the woods, Sharon can be found on Facebook or hanging poems and pictures at her website, Mimi's Golightly Café. She freely admits that both take time away from her poetry.
