toronto to north russell

we three had a soma hot chocolate
 walking into soma is a heady experience
delicious and seductive
 soma retail store
 factory to the left
 chocolate makes it right
 a home
a business?
in a residential neighborhood.
 the north side of the great lake i grew up near
lake ontario 
who takes in what lake erie can send her
good thing i got my finger at least partially out of the iphone's way!
 and here in the north country
the land is trying on her holiday clothes
 still snow enough to ski,
 i only got in a walk
but a wonderful snowy walk indeed.
 birches
 add in some wild grapevine
and across the road there is a child living
with these dr. seuss like trees
which i just love.
welcome back to winter.
