The plum can stay put (happy 100th, Bill Stafford)



The cold, the fog the snow -
especially from my window!
Here's a hot cup of tea and a fresh
biscuit, in hand. I don’t need to go
anywhere, til cabin fever sets in -
then I can. All chores are handled,
everything’s secure and safe. And
there’s the trampoline. Come jump.
The plum can stay put, no need
to imagine honors or the lack.
