frosted windows
a young boy
practicing his autograph

snow day
so many options
what to do first

watching my hot breath
dance in the cold air
my experience with God

iced parking lot
reconnecting with God
all the way to the car

fresh falling snow
an unwelcome companion
on my road trip

driving through a blizzard
finally a snowmound of lights
where warmth awaits

snow storm
20 miles from town
her water breaks

bone chilling
dog whimpering
all night

laughing as I
throw another snowball

first snow
ball to the face…
older brother

as the snow falls
eyes light up
thinking of angels

dancing fairies
darting from tree to tree
~ twirling snow

a song the blueprint
for transforming snow
into a new friend

twenty one
on Monday
I’ve never built a snowman

the family finds
among the snow
the perfect tree

drop on the end
of an icicle
waiting
