Untouched Snow

.

O magic tilt of earth,

we sing and dance

in this new wash

of winter.

.

Icy prisms

play the stars

.

while we gather

reds and greens

to weave ourselves

a holy wreath

.

as one tall candle

lights

the untouched snow.

Wishing everyone a holiday season

filled with love, joy, peace and good health.

Merry Christmas!!
