See in your deepest, strangest
imaginings, how we blazed
like crimson sleds
over silent, powdered snow
in a headlong rush of
years, singular experiences a white
blur, moments nothing tactile,
insignificant after all
White blur. Uncountable
crystalline flakes lying in drifts
of undefiled connectedness, soil of our
imperfections covered and dark
beneath, downplayed by
the magnitude of infinity
Landscapes of stark,
savannas of white, our
tears and celebrations muffled
in the cruel, icy wind
of centuries
Mysteriously, love abides
undiminished in all that vastness,
each act building on the last,
a continuance of what was
our splendor mid the sanctuary of
flurries,
a radiance of
hearts across the eternal,
reflecting a brilliance outward,
upward, to warm the cold,
clear stars
