Last Day of the New Year

                                                                  

 

It's one thing to wish for, ask for, pray for snow

On Christmas Eve

And receive it as a blessing from heaven

Or surrogate infiniteness

In which one may invest spirituality,

But it's altogether another thing

To wish for, ask for, pray for snow,

A continuous dusting, anyway, if not a blizzard,

On New Year's Eve

And get a second benediction of divine will.

Ah, but here I am, in the North Woods,

This last day of 2009,

Circumscribed by a shimmering snowy halo

Glowing like a full moon

Welcoming the coming of wondrous times.
