Still Life with Blizzard

Two inches of snow in ten minutes, and twenty minutes later; it was like
magic. The snow was gone! The pear blossoms are still there and they
have been unharmed by the freezing nights, but , while sitting in my
cherry plum tree, I haven't seen more than a few native bees , and,
though there are hives up the road, only ONE domestic honey bee, Even
the cats and chickens are sleeping most of the time. The peas are
ducking their little heads. Should I  nap before breakfast?
Afterwards, I think. And even with it this old, when the sun
shines bright, I like to get out in the afternoon and just lay there by
the Juniper.
