"The nature of the universe is the nature of things that are. Now, things that are have kinship with things that are from the beginning. Further, this nature is styled Truth; and it is the first cause of all that is true."

Marcus Aurelius (121–180)

Snow

    ©  November 1986

 

  Black and white
   Shades of grey --
Brilliant snow
  Lights the day

 

Clean and bright
  The winter scene
Pearly snow

  Is everywhere seen

 

Yet the snow

  Is still not pure

Formed from dust

  Like mortals, here

 

Dust is woven
  Crocheted to snow
And robes the world
  From heaven, below

 

Frozen and still
  The sleepy land
Under snowy blankets
  Till Spring, again

 Thought:

"For He saith to the snow,
     Be thou on earth; ...
"
              Job 37:6  (KJV)
