Pure white angel kisses, frozen in time
Drift down swiftly, silently and so sublime
To caress the nakedness and coldness
Of the earth as it approaches Winter solstice.
Sparkling with God's love sprightly
Glistening with God's hope brightly
These frozen filigrees fill in empty spaces
Left by the death of and rejection by faces
Familiar and foreign and foremost, loved.
My soul is snuggled in comfort by the covered
Blanket they gently lay upon my broken
World, full of mercy from The Word spoken!
