First snow

Posted on September 1, 2017 by Jan Dean

first tonguetip flakemelt
…..white freckling the blue night

so she whirls across the hill
…..dances

is a blizzard of light
…..in this joy of firstness

this coming
…..was always coming

delight or disaster
…..welcome it

    But enthusiasm modifies with time.
    Grace be with you.
