The water is on for coffee.
I open the front door for the newspaper
expecting the single digit cold.
And see, unexpectedly,
a brand new blanket
of fresh, reflective snow
under the bright moon.
Grace – an unexpected
blessing from heaven.
The surprise is shocking,
not from the cold,
but the lightness, the beauty.
The black and white world
all soft curves.
My little back Ion car
is an abstract of black lines
connecting large patches of white.
I am lifted by the beauty,
graced by the contrast,
frozen by the moment.
Graces releases all
“to do” thoughts of the day.
I stand and absorb
the silence in the morning peace.
I am graced by this day,
by the gentle snow
and the reflected lightness.
Thank you.
