Snow Day

coated in candied confection
glitters as if gold
could it be a tiny inkling
of what heaven will behold?

January 15, 2004

Whether on the shoal or on the shore,
I'll seek the lighthouse evermore.

Inkling is a funny word.  Say it, "Inkling".  Now say it 3 times..."Inkling, Inkling, Inkling".  Funny.

I hope it's not cold in heaven.  Oooo...how about "snow", but warm snow, like tepid.  Comfortable, with all the beauty and fluff.
