Snow in Heaven

The dismal thickness gives way to a furious white swarm The snow against the sunrise is a fierce contradiction, but hardly a plague. This is the release. I think I understand the glee with which people embrace these days. The alternative is grey, it is a soup of cold, hard waiting.

A cup of pristine snow, from the cleanest range air, mixed with warmed milk and cinnamon; This is the only slush worth a damn. There is snow in Heaven.

  1. Hi Rob! Thanks for the comment and the link. Your posts are beautiful. Reminds me of this poem…

    Because You Asked about the Line between Prose and Poetry

    Sparrows were feeding in a freezing drizzle
    That while you watched turned into pieces of snow
    Riding a gradient invisible
    From silver aslant to random, white, and slow.

    There came a moment that you couldn’t tell.
    And then they clearly flew instead of fell.
