Snow
Light, fluffy
Warms my heart
Like cake from oven
Frosting.
John A. Bayerl, January 13, 2012
That's how the snow is today, it's like living in a snow globe. No wind, it falls straight down. Yes, snow can inspire warm feelings, even warmer memories. Always of precious times with Gwen. This is what we thought winter should be like; that and bright, crisp sunny days when the snow crunched and crackled as we walked together.
Down here, in the land of trolls, we most often get what I call rusty snow. No more need be said about what that's like--think salt, slush, sloppy and that other word that begins with an s.
It's good to have Anne with me today. She will leave later for a wedding in Detroit. Until then, it's good to have her lively presence and spirit.
It's an emotional roller coaster. Today, no tears, Julian of Norwich's words again come to mind: "All will be well, and all will be well, all manner of things shall be well." At least today; inside the snow globe.
Time to go shovel some of that frosting.
