time glass

Time Glass


Snow, like frosted cornflakes fell
slowly to the ground. Look! Snow!
It hasn’t snowed here since 1932
an ancient farmhand said, as a flake
fell into his open palm and quickly
disappeared into his nut-brown skin.
Toothless he laughed and in dimmed
eyes forgotten youth danced.

Ah, transience my love, beauty never
lasts, but leaves me something I ought
to remember.

Sun came and in an instant the idyllic
winter scene vanished, evergreen
bushes shook themselves as did weed
along whitewashed walls. Yes, I have
to send mother a Christmas card, not
of snow but of the landscape where
December flowers bloom and every
drop of dew, on the outer field, briefly
carry the nucleus of a holy rainbow.
