Something More

Taking leave of 

the conventions of 

snow covered 

asphalt streets and 

cement sidewalks, 

the snow sculpted

ice cream and 

marshmallows from

glistening snow. Once 

barren trees and hedges

were transformed into a 

magic land of something more.

“Snow was falling, so much like stars filling the dark trees that one could easily imagine its reason for being was 

nothing more than prettiness,”

~ Mary Oliver
