February Spring

Suddenly, from temperatures in the teens and twenties,
today brought an afternoon in the 60s.

I was in Takoma Park, with some time between yoga classes.

I sat outside, in the sun,
it didn't feel like February.  

A medium sized bee hummed around,
lured from its burrow by the warmth.

For a bit, a cloud moved in front of the sun
just as a chilly breeze began to ruffle the papers
I had spread beside me.

I zipped up my coat.  It was a short spring in February.
