the snow remains
unfettered by the constraints of seasons
and the dictates of lives

floating like
quiet words of nature
lessons frozen in time

catch them
on your tongue
and be a student of eternity

BRAVO!!! Oh my gosh, up here in Colorado our weather is always so very diverse and we still have snow on the ground even while we have the worst drought since 1977; the sun tends to melt a lot of snow but also sucks all the moisture out of some of it so the whiteness remains but it is dry and like stone! (big hugggsssss) This is enchanting and a pleasure to read, sweet friend, we all love you so much! You have such a beautiful heart, sweet John, thank you for sharing!



May love and light always shine upon you!

Love,
Noah Eaton

Cool read, John

It's reassuring to realise that in this globe of rapid change, some things still remain the way they are
